Analytic Study Of Congenital Malformations In Four Hospitals In Baghdad
...Show More Authors

 Background: Congenital malformations are responsible for a considerable proportion of perinatal, neonatal and infant mortality in many Eastern Mediterranean countries. So this study
aims to find out the incidence, types and probable risk factors of these malformations in Baghdad.
Patients and methods: one hundred cases of congenital malformations were studied out of 8090 neonates born in 4 hospitals in Baghdad province over 5 months in 2002 (preterm, term) .The incidence , types and risk factors were analysed.
Results: the incidence of congenital malformations was 12.36/ 1000 live births, with the central nervous system malformations being the commonest. There is increased risk in consanguinous marriages 27 (27%), mothers not attending antenatal care 25 (25%), mothers of low gravidity 60 (60%), and mothers not taking folic acid during pregnancy (86.7%).
Conclusion: Consanguineous marriages and mothers not taking folic acid during pregnancy are important risk factors for the occurrence of congenital malformations .So I recommend genetic counseling especially for consanguineous marriages, and giving all pregnant women folic acid before and during pregnancy. A multicentre study will give more broad idea about the incidence, types ,and risk factors in our country

Palestinian Experience in Stage Four Pressure Ulcer
...Show More Authors

Pressure ulcer (now called Pressure injury) happens when the bony prominence like the sacrum exposes to pressure for a long period and also can cause soft tissue injury. In order to prevent and cure pressure-induced wounds, continuous and attentive repositioning is necessary. Wound management begins with the identification and aggressive management of the modifiable factors, such as positioning, incontinence, spasticity, diet, devices, and medical comorbidity, which contribute to pressure injury formation. Initial interventions include washing, cleaning, and maintaining the surfaces of the wound. In certain cases, it may be sufficient to debride the non-viable or contaminated tissue; however, operational care in more severe cases
