Quasi-experimental study to evaluate whether clinical care offered to clients was more appropriate and in line with WHO recommendations for care in normally progressing labor and in labor with complications, among providers using the novel intervention, ePartogram (an electronic version of the WHO paper partograph) vs. providers who offered care using the standard paper partograph, and whether fetal/newborn outcomes were improved among cases where partograph was used.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the ultrasound characteristics and outcome of pregnancies with fetal Intra-abdominal umbilical vein aneurysm.
In January 2017 investigators started a Center for Peripartum Optimization (CPO) with the aim of optimizing a patient's clinical status in an outpatient setting to minimize unnecessary laboratory tests and studies, costly inpatient consultations, the likelihood of post-surgical adverse events, escalations in level of care, inpatient admissions and readmissions. This research project seeks to evaluate the impact of this innovative concept on patient outcomes during the last 12 months. Investigators will accomplish this by collecting retrospective data from patients' electronic medical records in the intervention group and comparing it to data gathered from a controlled group of patients with similar comorbidities but who were not evaluated at the CPO clinic.
The goal of this study is to identify whether antibiotics given at the time of placement of an intrauterine balloon tamponade (IBT) will result in reduction of the risk of endometritis. The investigators hypothesize that antibiotics given at the time of intrauterine balloon tamponade will reduce the likelihood of postpartum endometritis.
