Article Received on 26/05/2020 Article Revised on 16/06/2020 Article Accepted on 06/07/2020 ABSTRACT Background: The nuchal cord is described as the umbilical cord around the fetal neck. It is classified as simple or multiple, loose or tight with the compression of the fetal neck. The term nuchal cord represents an umbilical cord that passes 360 degrees around the fetal neck. Objective: To find out perinatal outcomes in cases of labour of babies with nuchal cord and compared with other cases without nuchal cord. Patient and Methods: The prospective case-control study was conducted in maternity teaching hospital centre in Sulaimani / Kurdistan Region of Iraq, from June 2018 to April 2019. Cases of study divided into two groups. First group comprised of women in whom nuchal cord was present at the time of delivery they were labelled as cases. Second group was a control group composed of women in whom nuchal cord was absent at the time of delivery. Results: This study included (200) patients, (100) women with nuchal cord in labour. (59%) of the cases of nuchal cord in age group (20-29) years, (40%) of them were primigravida, delivery modes for women with nuchal cord were mainly normal vaginal delivery (76%) and cesarean section (24%). -

Necrotizing Enterocolitis in a Newborn Following Intravenous Immunoglobulin Treatment for Haemolytic Disease
CASE REPORT Necrotizing Enterocolitis in a Newborn Following Intravenous Immunoglobulin Treatment for Haemolytic Disease Semra Kara1, Hulya Ulu-ozkan2, Yavuz Yilmaz2, Fatma Inci Arikan3, Ugur Dilmen4 and Yildiz Dallar Bilge3 ABSTRACT ABO iso-immunization is the most frequent haemolytic disease of the newborn. Treatment depends on the total serum bilirubin level, which may increase very rapidly in the first 48 hours of life in cases of haemolytic disease of the newborn. Phototherapy and, in severe cases, exchange transfusion are used to prevent hyperbilirubinaemic encephalopathy. Intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) are used to reduce exchange transfusion. Herein, we present a female newborn who was admitted to the NICU because of ABO immune haemolytic disease. After two courses of 1 g/kg of IVIG infusion, she developed necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Administration of IVIG to newborns with significant hyperbilirubinaemia due to ABO haemolytic disease should be cautiously administered and followed for complications.

Caesarean Section for Placenta Praevia (Consent Advice No
Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Consent Advice No. 12 December 2010 CAESAREAN SECTION FOR PLACENTA PRAEVIA This is the first edition of this guidance. This paper provides additional advice for clinicians in obtaining consent of a woman to undergo caesarean section in the specific circumstance of current pregnancy with placenta praevia with or without previous caesarean section. It is designed to be used in conjunction with Consent Advice No. 7: Caesarean section.1 The aim of this paper is to highlight the additional and specific consequences of caesarean section performed in the presence of placenta praevia. The information should, where possible, be provided during the antenatal period in the form of an information sheet to allow the woman to understand the situation and to provide ample opportunities for her to ask any questions she may have and to antenatally meet providers of additional services that may become necessary, such as interventional radiologists. Depending on local clinical governance arrangements, an additional consent form may be used with the addition- al risks highlighted, or the additional risks may be incorporated in a specific consent form for the whole procedure. CONSENT FORM 1. Name of proposed procedure or course of treatment Caesarean section for placenta praevia. 2. The proposed procedure Describe the nature of caesarean section and emphasise how a procedure in the presence of placenta praevia varies in comparison with one performed in the presence of a normally sited placenta. Explain the procedure as described in the patient information. 3. Intended benefits The aim of the procedure is to secure the safest route of delivery to avoid the anticipated risks to the mother and/or baby of the heavy bleeding that would occur during labour and attempted vaginal delivery owing to the position of the placenta. -

The Effect of Nuchal Cord on Perinatal Mortality and Long-Term Offspring Morbidity
Journal of Perinatology https://doi.org/10.1038/s41372-019-0511-x ARTICLE The effect of nuchal cord on perinatal mortality and long-term offspring morbidity 1 1 2 1 Roee Masad ● Gil Gutvirtz ● Tamar Wainstock ● Eyal Sheiner Received: 28 May 2019 / Revised: 11 August 2019 / Accepted: 16 August 2019 © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature America, Inc. 2019 Abstract Objective To evaluate perinatal and long-term cardiovascular and respiratory morbidities of children born with nuchal cord. Study design A large population-based cohort analysis of singleton deliveries was conducted. Maternal and birth char- acteristics, as well as cardiovascular and respiratory morbidity incidence were evaluated. Kaplan–Meier survival curves were used to compare cumulative hospitalization incidence between groups. Cox regression models were used to control for possible confounders and follow-up length. Results 243,682 deliveries were included. Of them, 34,332 (14.1%) were diagnosed with nuchal cord. Perinatal mortality rate was comparable between groups (0.5 vs. 0.6%, p = 0.16). Kaplan–Meier survival curves demonstrated no significant p = p = 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: differences in cumulative cardiovascular or respiratory morbidity incidence between groups (log rank 0.69 and 0.10, respectively). Cox regression models reaffirmed a comparable risk for hospitalization between groups (aHR = 0.99 (95% CI 0.85–1.14, p = 0.87) and aHR = 0.97 (95% CI 0.92–1.02, p = 0.28). Conclusions Nuchal cord is not associated with higher rate of perinatal mortality nor long-term cardiorespiratory morbidity. Introduction Controversy exists in the literature regarding the sig- nificance of nuchal cord. -
