Background
To compare between the sequential and concurrent use of vaginal misoprostol plus Foley catheter for labor induction.Methods
This single-center, non-blinded randomized study was conducted at the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Faculty of medicine, Zagazig University. A total of 160 women with full term singleton pregnancy, cephalic presentation and bishop score ≤ 6 were randomized for labor induction with either concurrent or sequential use of vaginal misoprostol plus Foley catheter (80 cases in each group). The primary outcome measured was induction-to-delivery interval and secondary outcomes mesaured were vaginal delivery within 24 h, number of doses needed to induce labor, need of oxytocin for augmentation of labor, cesarean section rate, maternal or neonatal complications.Results
The mean induction-to-delivery interval was 22.33 ± 13.28 h versus 18.45 ± 14.34 h (p = 0.041) in sequential and concurrent group, respectively. The percentage of women who completed vaginal delivery within 24 h was 51% versus 61% (p = 0.046) in sequential and concurrent group, respectively. Other maternal and neonatal outcomes were similar in both groupsConclusion
Concurrent use of vaginal misoprostol plus Foley catheter for labor induction was associated with shorter induction-to delivery interval compared to sequential use, and it increases the rate of vaginal delivery in the first 24 h.2.

Background
This study aims to compare the value of the Bishop score and cervical length measurement by transvaginal ultrasonography in predicting active labor within 6 h, induction-to-delivery interval, and the duration of active labor and to estimate the most useful cutoff points for the two methods.Methods
This is a prospective comparative study of Bishop score and cervical length measured by transvaginal sonography on 62 nulliparous subjects who underwent induction of labor.Results
The Bishop score of the subjects ranged from two to seven (2–7). The mean Bishop in this study population was 4.37 + 1.23. The mean cervical length in this study was 25.59 + 6.07. Bishop score was highly significant (P value < 0.0001) in predicting active phase of labor as compared to cervical length (P = 0.004). The best cutoff value for Bishop score to predict induction of labor within 6 h was more than 4 with sensitivity of 69% and specificity of 79%. Similarly, best cutoff value for cervical length to predict induction of labor within 6 h was less than or equal to 25 mm with sensitivity of 51% and specificity of 70%. Bishop score was more significant (P = 0.001) in predicting induction-to-delivery interval within 12 h as compared to cervical length (P = 0.01).Conclusion
The Bishop score was superior in predicting the response to induction as compared to the cervical length measured by transvaginal ultrasonography.3.
Introduction
Uterine rupture is a catastrophic obstetrical emergency associated with a significant feto-maternal morbidity and mortality. Many risk factors for uterine rupture, as well as a wide range of clinical presentations, have been identified.Objectives
To analyze the frequency, predisposing factors, and maternal and fetal outcomes of uterine rupture.Methods
A retrospective analysis of cases of unscarred uterine rupture was conducted at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, RIMS, Imphal from June 1, 2010 to June 30, 2012.Results
Our analysis comprised 13 cases. Of these, 30.8 % were booked cases. Most of the cases (46.2 %) were Para 2. Uterine rupture occurred at term in 10 cases. The rupture occurred due to mismanaged labor (30.8 %), the use of oxytocin (23 %), instrumental delivery (15.4 %), obstructed labor (15.4 %), induction by prostaglandin gel (7.7 %), and placenta percreta (7.7 %). Maternal deaths and perinatal deaths were 30.8 and 53.8 %, respectively. Sub-total hysterectomy was done in 8 cases and in 1 patient laparotomy with repair was performed.Conclusion
Ruptured uterus causes a high risk in patients. An unscarred uterus can undergo rupture even without etiological or risk factors. The patients with mismanaged labor, grand multiparas, and obstructed prolonged labor must be managed by properly trained personnel at a tertiary care center in order to avoid the morbidity or mortality.4.

Objective
To determine the effects of oral misoprostol solution for induction of labour.Study Design
This is a prospective observational study.Setting
This study was conducted in Government Medical College, Aurangabad.Method
Patients undergoing induction of labour after 36 weeks of pregnancy were allocated by randomization to induction of labour with oral misoprostol solution administered 2 h apart. Delivery within 24 h after induction with oral misoprostol solution was the primary outcome on which the sample size was based. The data were analysed by Statistical Software for Social Sciences software.Result
Two hundred patients were randomly selected for induction with oral misoprostol solution. There were no significant differences in substantive outcomes. Vaginal delivery within 24 h was achieved in 80.5 % of patients. The caesarean section rate was 19.5 %. Uterine hyperactivity occurred in 4 % of patients. The response to induction of labour in women with unfavourable cervices (modified Bishop’s score <2) was somewhat slower with misoprostol, induction to delivery interval was more, oxytocin requirement was more, and vaginal delivery rate was less.Conclusion
This new approach to oral misoprostol solution administration was successful in achieving vaginal delivery rate in 24 h in 80.5 % of patients; rate of LSCS was less 19.5 %.5.
Purpose
Type and volume of fluid administered for intrapartum maintenance had been reported to differently affect labor length, delivery mode, and cord artery pH and glucose level. We aimed to compare the effect of three different fluid regimens on labor duration.Methods
In a randomized trial, healthy nulliparous in labor were randomized into one of three intravenous fluid regimens: group 1, the reference group, lactated Ringer’s solution infused at a rate of 125 mL/h; group 2, lactated Ringer’s solution infused at a rate of 250 mL/h; group 3, 0.9% saline solution boosted with 5% glucose, infused at a rate of 125 mL/h. The primary outcome was labor length from enrollment until delivery.Results
Between December 2010 and July 2015, 300 women were randomized to one of the three groups. Demographic and baseline obstetric characteristics were comparable between the groups. There was no significant difference in the time from enrollment to delivery (p = 0.62). Furthermore, there were no significant differences in second stage duration (p = 0.73), mode of delivery (p = 0.21), cord artery pH and glucose level between the groups.Conclusions
Increasing the intravenous volume of lactated Ringer’s solution or substituting to fluid containing 5% glucose solution does not affect labor length.Clinical trial registration

Purpose
To stratify maternal and neonatal outcomes of trials of labor after previous cesarean delivery (TOLAC) by gestational age.Methods
Retrospective cohort study of all singleton pregnancies with one previous cesarean delivery in TOLAC at term between 2007 and 2014. We compared outcomes of delivery at an index gestational week, with outcomes of women who remained undelivered at this index gestational week (ongoing pregnancy). Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were adjusted for maternal age, previous vaginal delivery, induction of labor, epidural use, presence of meconium, and birth weight > 4000 g.Results
Overall, 2849 women were eligible for analysis. Of those, 2584 (90.7%) had a successful TOLAC and 16 women (0.56%) had uterine rupture. Those rates did not differ significantly for any gestational age (GA) group. Following adjustment for possible confounders, GA was not found to be independently associated with adverse maternal or neonatal outcomes.Conclusion
Among women at term with a single previous cesarean delivery, GA at delivery was not found to be an independent risk factor for TOLAC success or uterine rupture. We suggest that GA by itself will not serve as an argument for or against TOLAC.7.
Purpose
To develop a risk-assessment model for the prediction of emergency cesarean section (CS) in women having induction of labor (IOL).Methods
This was an observational cohort study of women with IOL for any indication between 2007 and 2013. Women induced for stillbirths and with multiple pregnancies were excluded. The primary objective was to identify risk factors associated with CS delivery and to construct a risk-prediction tool.Results
6169 women were identified with mean age of 28.9 years. Primiparity involved 47.1 %, CS rate was 13.3 % and post-date pregnancies were 32.4 %. Risk factors for CS were: age >30 years, BMI >25 kg/m2, primiparity, black-ethnicity, non post-date pregnancy, meconium-stained liquor, epidural analgesia, and male fetal gender. Each factor was assigned a score and with increasing scores the CS rate increased. The CS rate was 5.4 % for a score <11, while for a score ≥11 it increased to 25.0 %. The model had a sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value and positive predictive value of 75.8, 65.1, 93.8 and 25.0 %, respectively.Conclusion
We have constructed a risk-prediction tool for CS delivery in women with IOL. The risk-assessment tool for the prediction of emergency CS in induced labor has a high negative-predictive value and can provide reassurance to presumed low-risk women.8.

Objectives
To compare intravenous paracetamol and intramuscular tramadol as labor analgesics.Methods
This prospective-randomized study conducted in 200 primigravidae in active labor, distributed into two groups of 100 women each with one receiving intravenous 1,000 mg Paracetamol and other 100 mg intramuscular tramadol. Pain intensity is recorded by McGills scale before, one and 3 h after drug administration. Perinatal outcome is recorded.Results
No difference in pain intensity is seen before drug administration. After 1 h of drug administration, in paracetamol group, 4 % women had horrible pain, and 29 % had distressing pain, while in tramadol group, 30 % women had horrible pain, and 60 % had distressing pain. After 3 h of drug administration, in paracetamol group, 26 % had distressing pain, while in tramadol group, 51 % women had horrible pain, and 35 % had distressing pain. Labor duration in paracetamol and tramadol group was 4.3 and 5.9 h, respectively. In paracetamol group, nausea is seen in 2.2 % and vomiting in 1.1 %, while in tramadol group, nausea is seen in 6.4 % and vomiting in 4.3 %.Conclusions
Intravenous paracetamol is more effective labor analgesic with fewer maternal adverse effects and shortens labor as compared to intramuscular tramadol.9.
Purpose
The diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) in pregnancy is an uncommon, life-threatening emergency. Choice of treatment and management of complications are challenging.Methods
We report the case of a patient with diagnosis of APL at gestational age (GA) 24 + 4. We describe the interdisciplinary management during pregnancy and delivery and provide a 2-year follow-up. Existing reports on APL in pregnancy are summarized.Results
Single-agent induction therapy with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) was started and resulted in normalization of blood cell counts after 32 days. Vaginal delivery of a healthy baby occurred at GA 34 + 4. Consolidation therapy consisted of four courses of ATRA and arsenic trioxide (ATO). Less than 100 cases of APL in pregnancy are published. Misdiagnosis as HELLP syndrome with fatal outcome may occur. Combination therapies (ATRA-plus anthracyclines) were used in the majority of reports.Conclusions
Diagnosis and treatment of APL during pregnancy continues to be a challenge requiring interdisciplinary team work. Single-agent ATRA therapy may evolve as a safe and less-toxic treatment modality.10.

Objective
To investigate the role of “mifepristone” for induction of labor (IOL) in pregnant women with prior cesarean section (CS).Methods
In this retrospective study, all pregnant women with prior CS who received oral mifepristone (400 mg) for IOL (as per clear obstetric indications) [group 1] were compared with pregnant women with prior CS who had spontaneous onset of labor (SOL) [group 2], with respect to incidence of vaginal delivery, CS, duration of labor, and various maternal and fetal outcomes.Results
During the study period, 72 women received mifepristone (group 1) for IOL and 346 had SOL (group 2). In group 1 after mifepristone administration, 40 (55.6 %) women had labor onset, and 24 (33.3 %) women had cervical ripening (Bishop Score ≥ 8) within 48 h. There were no statistically significant differences with respect to duration of labor (p value: 0.681), mode of delivery (i.e., normal delivery or CS—p value: 0.076 or 0.120, respectively), or maternal (blood loss or scar dehiscence/rupture uterus), or fetal outcomes (NICU admission) compared to women with previous CS with SOL (group 2). However, the need of oxytocin (p value 0.020) and dose of oxytocin requirement (p value 0.008) were more statistically significant in group 1.Conclusion
Mifepristone may be considered as an agent for IOL in women with prior CS.11.

Objective
To compare the efficacy and safety of dienogest (DNG) with depot leuprolide acetate (LA) in patients with recurrent pelvic pain following laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis.Design
Prospective randomized trial.Setting
Zagazig University hospitals, Egypt.Patients
Two hundred and forty-two patients with recurrent pelvic pain following laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis.Intervention
Dienogest (2 mg/day, orally) or depot LA (3.75 mg/4 weeks, intramuscularly) for 12 weeks.Main Outcome Measures
A visual analogue scale was used to test the intensity of pain before and after the end of treatment.Results
There was highly significant reduction in pelvic pain, back pain and dyspareunia in both groups with mean of difference in dienogest group (28.7?±?5.3, 19.0?±?4.3 and 20.0?±?3.08 mm, respectively) and in LA group (26.2?±?3.01, 19.5?±?3.01 and 17.9?±?2.9 mm, respectively). The most frequent drug-related adverse effects in dienogest group were vaginal bleeding and weight gain (64.5 and 10.8%, respectively) which were significantly higher than LA group (21.5 and 3.3%, respectively). While the most frequent drug-related adverse effects in LA group were hot flushes and vaginal dryness (46.3 and 15.7%, respectively) which were significantly higher than dienogest group (15.7 and 3.3%, respectively).Conclusion
Daily dienogest is as effective as depot LA for relieving endometriosis-associated pelvic pain, low back pain and dyspareunia. In addition, dienogest has acceptable safety, tolerability and lower incidence of hot flushes. Thus, it may offer an effective and well-tolerated treatment in endometriosis.12.

Objective
To evaluate salpingoscopic tubal mucosal grading and to find out correlation between laparoscopic external tubal appearance and salpingoscopic mucosal appearance.Design
Prospective observational study.Intervention
Salpingoscopy and laparoscopy.Materials and Methods
Thirty-seven infertile women between 21 and 40 years of age group who attended infertility clinic at IKDRC, Ahmedabad, from May 2015 to August 2015, were enrolled in the study. Laparoscopic tubal morphology was classified as regular, convoluted and hydrosalpinx. Salpingoscopic findings were graded (Grade I–Grade V) according to Brosens classification.Results
Laparoscopic appearance of tube was regular in 18 (48 %), convoluted in 17 (45.94 %), and hydrosalpinx in 2 (5.4 %) women. Salpingoscopic findings were graded as Grade I in 14 (37.83 %), Grade II in 10 (27.02 %), Grade III in 8 (21.62 %), Grade IV in 3 (8.10 %), and Grade V in 2 (5.4 %) women. Discordance between laparoscopic and salpingoscopic findings, i.e. regular appearance on laparoscopy and Grade III–Grade V appearance on salpingoscopy, was found in 38.88 % women.Conclusion
Laparoscopy alone might not be sufficient to predict tubal integrity and salpingoscopic endotubal grading may help in infertility treatment selection decisions. Early counselling towards IVF-ET can be encouraged in cases with higher grade.13.
Purpose
Continuous epidural infusion and programmed intermittent epidural boluses are analgesic techniques routinely used for pain relief in laboring women. We aimed to assess both techniques and compare them with respect to labor analgesia and obstetric outcomes.Methods
After Institutional Review Board approval, 132 laboring women aged between 18 and 45 years were randomized to epidural analgesia of 10 mL of a mixture of 0.1% bupivacaine plus 2 µg/mL of fentanyl either by programmed intermittent boluses or continuous infusion (66 per group). Primary outcome was quality of analgesia. Secondary outcomes were duration of labor, total drug dose used, maternal satisfaction, sensory level, motor block level, presence of unilateral motor block, hemodynamics, side effects, mode of delivery, and newborn outcome.Results
Patients in the programmed intermittent epidural boluses group received statistically less drug dose than those with continuous epidural infusion (24.9 vs 34.4 mL bupivacaine; P = 0.01). There was no difference between groups regarding pain control, characteristics of block, hemodynamics, side effects, and Apgar scores.Conclusions
Our study evidenced a lower anesthetic consumption in the programmed intermittent boluses group with similar labor analgesic control, and obstetric and newborn outcomes in both groups.14.
Objective
To compare the effectiveness and safety of sublingual versus vaginal misoprostol on improving the Bishop score after 6 h of administration.Methods
Randomized clinical trial which includes pregnant women in gestational ages from 32/0 to 41/6, with indication of induction of labor with misoprostol. Bishop score was assessed at the time of induction and 6 h after administration of 50 µg misoprostol. Analysis was made over difference in mean Bishop score of 2 points, using a standard deviation of 2, with 90% power, reaching a 95% confidence interval.Results
102 patients were studied, 51 received sublingual misoprostol, and 51 received vaginal misoprostol. There was a statistically significant difference in cervical modifications in global terms regardless of the administration route at 6 h (P?<?0.05). When analyzing each group, there was no significant difference for the mean and standard deviation for Bishop score for sublingual and vaginal route (P?=?0.761). There was no significant difference in terms of mode of delivery, Apgar score, cord pH, nor in the presence of complications.Conclusion
There is no statistically significant difference in terms of administration route for cervical ripening using misoprostol 50 µg, whether it was sublingual or vaginal.Trial registration number

Objective
To study the incidence, maternal, and perinatal outcomes in intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy with active management.Materials and Methods
This observational study included 48 cases diagnosed as intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy. Medical treatment and active management (fetal surveillance and termination of pregnancy at 37–38 weeks) were offered to all. Maternal and perinatal outcomes are studied.Results
Incidence of ICP was 2.4 %. More than 86 % of patients presented with generalized pruritus mostly after 30 weeks. Incidences of Intrapartum abnormal cardiotocography (12.5 %) and thick meconium (8.33 %) were high. Cesarean section rate was high (41.66 %). Most common indications were CDMR, fetal distress, and non-progress of labor. Incidence of preterm labor, IUGR, Apgar score (<7), and neonatal admission rate were not high. There was one stillbirth at 36 weeks of gestation. Serum transaminase levels tended to be higher in patients with poor perinatal outcomes, such as stillbirth, fetal distress, and meconium-stained amniotic fluid.Conclusion
Serum transaminase levels tended to be higher in patients with poor perinatal outcome. Perinatal outcome is good with active management, at the cost of higher LSCS rate. Further randomized controlled trial of early versus spontaneous delivery may be justified.16.
Objective
To study the effect of GnRh agonist administration prior to estrogen–progesterone preparation of the endometrium on the implantation rate in frozen–thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles in infertile patients treated with IVF/ICSI.Design
Prospective controlled study.Setting
Private center in Alexandria, Egypt.Patients
Patients undergoing frozen–thawed embryo transfer FET.Intervention(s)
Patients were divided into two groups, A and B. Group A patients consisted of 110 patients (110 cycles) who received daily subcutaneous injections of 0.1 mg of the GnRh agonist triptorelin starting from the mid-luteal phase of the cycle preceding the actual FET cycle. The dose was reduced to 0.05 mg from the second day of the cycle when daily oral estradiol valerate 6 mg was also started. Daily vaginal supplementation of micronized progesterone 400 mg b.d. was started after 12 days when the GnRh agonist was also stopped. Frozen–thawed embryos were transferred on day + 1 of their chronological age and when the endometrium reached 12 mm in thickness. Group B consisted of 100 patients (100 cycles) who started daily estradiol valerate 6 mg administration from the second day of the FET cycle and followed the same regimen but without prior treatment with triptorelin.Main Outcome Measures
Implantation and pregnancy rates were compared among the two groups.Results
There was a significant increase in implantation rate in the GnRh agonist group (group A) compared to the estrogen and progesterone only group (group B) (44.1 vs. 21.1 %; P = 0.002*). The pregnancy rate was also significantly higher in group A compared to group B (65.5 vs. 42 %, P = 0.013*).Conclusions
GnRh agonist administration during endometrial preparation for FET increases the implantation and pregnancy rates.17.

Objective
To study the prevalence, clinical and laparoscopic characteristics of endometriosis in infertile women.Study Design
This is a hospital-based prospective study.Patients
Five hundred and two (502) patients underwent diagnostic laparoscopy for evaluation of cause for infertility. Staging of endometriosis was done according to the rAFS scoring system.Results
Out of 502 women, 276 (54.98 %) showed the presence of endometriosis, while 226 (45.01 %) did not have endometriosis. One hundred and eighty-three (66.3 %) women had stage I endometriosis, 49 (17.77 %) had stage II, 23 (8.33 %) had stage III and 21 (7.6 %) had stage IV endometriosis.Conclusion
More than 50 % of patients in our study were asymptomatic; however, the presence of menorrhagia, dysmenorrhoea, dyspareunia and chronic pelvic pain are also clinically statistically significant. So, we would like to recommend the evaluation and treatment of a patient reporting in gynaecological OPD with the above-mentioned complaints with high suspicion of endometriosis.18.
Purpose
The aim of this retrospective case–control study was to assess clinical factors that can predict the occurrence of post-partum urinary retention (PPUR) and evaluate their influence as independent risk factors.Methods
Between January 2008 and December 2010, 11,108 vaginal deliveries were performed. 105 women who suffered from PPUR were detected by retrospective data analysis. PPUR was defined as the inability to have spontaneous micturition within 6 h after vaginal delivery.Results
Data analysis detected six risk factors for PPUR on-set: primiparity, vacuum-assisted delivery, uterine fundal pressure during the second stage of labor (Kristeller’s maneuver), a longer second stage of labor, medio-lateral episiotomy, initial higher dose of epidural analgesia. Nevertheless, logistic regression showed that only vacuum-assisted delivery and Kristeller’s maneuver were significant independent risk factors (P = 0.001 and 0.009, respectively).Conclusions
Our study identified these risk factors as the cause of mechanical and neurological damage, which can lead to post-partum urinary retention. By early diagnosis, a prompt and appropriate management of PPUR can be established in order to assure a rapid return to normal bladder function after vaginal delivery.19.
Introduction
Auscultation of the fetal heart is a common event in antenatal care, in early pregnancy it may be associated with false negative results, which require ultrasound scan to confirm fetal viability.Methods
We studied 197 women in early pregnancy to determine the gestational age at which the fetal heart can be reliably identified and the factors which determined the accuracy of the test.Results
The proportion of successful auscultations increased with advancing gestation (p < 0.001). There was no effect of maternal body mass index or the level of midwifery experience.Conclusion
For a sensitivity of 90%, the fetal heart should be auscultated after 13 week gestation. If a sensitivity of 80% is acceptable the fetal heart can be auscultated after 12 + 1 week gestation.20.
