Perinatal outcome in cases of borderline oligohydramnios
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology Research - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction Oligohydramnios is associated with intrauterine growth restriction congenital anomaly neonatal and maternal morbidities The outcome in cases of borderline oligohydramnios is less clear This study was performed to document fetal neonatal and maternal outcome in cases of borderline oligohydramnios among those women who delivered in our unitMaterials and Methods The duration of the study was July 2013June 2016 and a total of 66 women who were more than 37 weeks gestation were included The data was compared with 66 control women from the same institutionResults Overall 454 cases were delivered normally while 625 of the control group had a vaginal delivery p002 Emergency caesarean section cases were due to fetal distress in 3529 of cases compared to 86in the control group p002The fetal and neonatal outcome was far better in the control group as there was 45 versus 8 cases where there was a neonatal problem p 0Conclusions Cases of borderline oligohydramnios at term have a higher risk of perinatal complications and operative delivery and should be monitored during labour Delivery should preferably be in a unit where excellent neonatal facilities are availableKeywords Oligohydramnios Caesarean section Intrauterine growth restriction Meconium
