Clinical and laboratory data along with demographic data was recorded and analysed.Results: 23 cases were included with age of presentation 8 to 28 days. Babies particularly male babies received breast massage (N=10), besides this pain (15) and redness (N=23) was most common clinical characteristics purulent discharge seen in 2 cases and 7 cases were febrile. Laboratory findings include decreased total leucocyte count (TLC) and positive C-reactive protein (CRP), pus culture from samples revealed S. aureus in 11 cases, coagulase-negative staphylococci (...

This was a prospective study conducted on 200 pregnant women in the second trimester between 19-22 weeks of gestation. Singleton pregnant women were recruited from those attending antenatal care clinics at this hospital over a period of two years. Obstetric and medical history was taken. Transabdominal ultrasound was done and then patients were subjected to Doppler examination of uterine arteries. Results: Mean age of study population was 26.3 years with maximum number of patients in 25-29 year age group. Total numbers of primigravida were 59.5%. Maternal history revealed that 9.5% had previous history of hypertensive pregnancy, 3.5% had history of IUGR. Early onset pre-eclampsia (<32 weeks) was present in 42.9% and late onset pre-eclampsia (>32 weeks) was present in 57.1% cases. Doppler abnormalities were present in 7.5%. In the patients who developed pre-eclampsia 57.1% had uterine artery Doppler abnormalities. Conclusions: Maternal history and uterine artery Doppler at 19-22 weeks gestation is a single step test for the prediction of early onset(<32 weeks) and late onset pre-eclampsia and intra uterine growth restriction.
