MATERNAL AND FETAL OUTCOMES IN EMERGENCY VERSUS ELECTIVE TWO OR MORE PREVIOUS CAESAREAN DELIVERIES
...Show More Authors

Background: Women with previous two or
more caesarean deliveries are usually
managed by elective cesarean section to avoid
the possible risks of labor.
Objective: To compare the relative risks of
maternal and fetal outcomes in emergency
versus elective previous two or more
caesarean deliveries
Design: Randomized prospective clinical
study
Setting: Al-Elweya Maternity Teaching
Hospital, from 1st of March to 31st of
September 2008.
Methods: The study groups, those who had
previous two or more caesarean deliveries,
were included from the hospital admissions.
The 1st group (102 women) presented in labor
and was managed by caesarean delivery as
soon as it was possible. The second group (78
women) was admitted for elective cesarean
delivery.
The main maternal outcomes were intra
operative complications, including
hysterectomy, scar dehiscence, bladder
injuries, uterine and internal iliac arteries
ligation, and blood transfusion. Postoperative
maternal outcomes were severe morbidity
including bleeding, fever, urinary tract
infection, blood transfusion, the need to
Intensive Care Unit admission and
readmission. The fetal outcomes measures
were Apgar score at one and five minutes,
respiratory distress syndrome (RDS),
admission to the neonatal intensive care unit
and fetal loss up to hospital discharge.
Results: Both groups were comparable in
demographic, social and past obstetric history
characteristics. Intra operative complications
showed significant difference in bowel
adhesions (RR 0.35, 95% CI 0.14- 0.88), and
blood transfusion (RR 0.51, 95% CI 0.28-
0.94). There was statistical significant
difference in the mobilization time 7.2 hours
and 9.3 hours in emergency and elective
groups respectively (p= 0.0009), also in
feeding time, it was shorter after emergency
caesarean section (P=0.0224), and in the
hospital stay 24.6 and 32.6 hours respectively
(p=0.0001). There was no statistical difference
in post operative complications. Fetal
outcomes showed no statistical significant
difference in fetal loss, respiratory distress and
readmission.
Conclusion: Women with previous two or
more caesarean deliveries can wait until
starting labor for doing cesarean delivery
without increasing risks to the mother and
fetus.

It comprises a set of continually developing methods and procedures providing the geospatial base supporting a country’s governmental, environmental, economic, and social activities. In general, the SDI framework consists of the integration of various elements including standards, policies, networks, data, and end users and application areas. The transformation of previously paper-based map data into a digital format, the emergence of GIS, and the Internet and a host of online applications (e.g., environmental impact analysis, navigation, applications of VGI dat

IT has its impact on all aspects of life, including its planning and operations. Based on the assumption that the plan can adapt any technique as an analytical tool within broader dimensions to include society in general and meet the requirements of that society. They have neutral values, meaning and usefulness rather than being adopted as abstract goals or objectives so that the planner or the decision-maker can benefit greatly from them. This information technology is summarized in three main axes: First: Geographic Information Systems. Second: computer modeling. Third: visual simulation and the Internet. The problem of research is that the decision-making environment of the plan is surrounded by uncertain information-planning conditio

Portuguese Colonial Policy in Brazil in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries
...Show More Authors

Over the course of two centuries, Portugal emerged as one of the most powerful European empires, with colonies stretching from Asia and Africa to Brazil. A significant factor in this expansion was the role of winds, which carried one of Cabral’s ships westward, landing unexpectedly on unknown shores—the Brazilian coasts. These territories later became some of Portugal’s richest and most important colonies. Therefore, the study begins in the 16th century and concludes at the end of the 17th century. The study was divided into four sections. The first section addressed Portugal's discovery 0022 of Brazil and its naming before it gained economic importance.
