Elective Repeat Cesarean

Cortisol administered to the mother prior to elective repeat cesarean section resulted in an increased level of this hormone in both the mother and the infant's blood at the time of delivery. Cortisol given either to the mother prior to delivery or to the infant directly augmented the infant's hyperglycemic response to 30 µg/kg of glucagon. Some implications of these findings are discussed.

Repeat Cesarean Section

In their report on the measurement of elevated intragastric oxygen concentration to detect H-type tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF), Korones and Evans1 mention that they waited two years before reporting their experience in hopes of finding additional cases. We have recently encountered two cases of H-type TEF in which the intragastric oxygen test proved helpful in confirming the diagnosis. CASE REPORTS Case 1 A 1,925-gm girl was born by repeat cesarean section on December 10, 1977, to a 27-year-old gravida 4, para 4 black woman after 34 weeks' gestation. The mother had had a bloody discharge in the second trimester. Membranes ruptured 17 hours before delivery.

Repeat Cesarean Section

In our report, we present a case of repeat cesarean section in a 29-year-old Ecuadorian mother who contracted COVID-19 and traveled to the United States during her last trimester of pregnancy. We assembled a multidisciplinary team to safely deliver the mother by cesarean section. She received supportive care for her COVID-19 infection. Infection prevention procedures were based on early available data, and the baby was delivered without complications.

AbstractBackgroundWe aimed to evaluate the efficiency of placental elasticity in predicting the amount of intraoperative bleeding via real-time tissue elastography technique.MethodsPregnant women in the third trimester of pregnancy who had planned delivery via cesarean section due to the recurrent cesareans were enrolled in the research (n = 78). Elastographic measurements of placental tissues of all cases were carried out by real-time elastographic ultrasonography. It is a tissue elastography software (Esaote MyLabSeven) that uses a 8-1-MHz multifrequency AC2541 Probe.ResultsA significant relationship was found between placental elasticity and intraoperative bleeding. There was a significant correlation between alterations in the preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin (Hb) and hematocrit (Hct) levels and placental strain ratio (SR) (P < 0.001, r: 0.831; P < 0.001, r: 0.733, respectively).ConclusionThese findings may reflect an alteration at the tissue elasticity level. We hope that the use of real-time elastographic ultrasonography technique may give an idea about the amount of bleeding during the cesarean section.
