Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Gynaecology - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Background: The amniotic fluid (AF) is a part of the baby’s life support system. It aids in the development of muscles, limbs, lungs and digestive system. Amniotic fluid is produced soon after the amniotic sac is formed at about 12 days after conception. Aims and Objectives: To study factors associated and outcome of oligohydramnios at tertiary health care centre. Methodology: After approval from institutional ethical committee a cross-sectional study was carried out in the department of OBGY in the patients with oligo-hydramnios admitted during the one year period one year period during March 2016 to March 2018. Those which shown oligohydramnios on USG with the written consent were included into the study. All details of the patients like parity, associated factors if any and outcome of foetus and neonate were recorded. Result: The majority of the patients were Nulliparaous i.e. 48.21 %, Primipara were 21.43%, Para two were 16.07%, Para three were 12.50 %, Para four were 1.79. The most common associated factors were Post maturity > 42 weeks were 30.36%, Prolonged pregnancy 40-42 weeks-19.64%, PIH-16.07%, PROM -12.50%, Chronic abruption-8.93%, Chronic renal failure-7.14%, Idiopathic-5.36%. The most common foetal outcome were Preterm birth in 41.07%, followed by IUGR in 30.36%, LBW in 19.64%, Abortion in 5.36%, IUD in 3.57%. The most common Neonatal illness were Respiratory distress syndrome - 32.14%, Sepsis - 23.21%, NICU Admission -19.64, Intracranial bleed - 16.07%, Low APGAR - 8.93%. Conclusion: It can be concluded from our study that most common associated factors were Post maturity, Prolonged pregnancy, PIH, PROM, Chronic abruption, Chronic renal failure etc. The most common foetal outcome were Preterm birth, IUGR, LBW, Abortion, IUD. The most common Neonatal illness were Respiratory distress syndrome, Sepsis, NICU Admission, Intracranial bleed Low APGAR.
