Abstract:
Objective To discuss the influence of H1N1 influenza on maternal and fetal outcomes and obstetric management. Methods Totally, data were collected on 19 women, affected by H1N1 influenza and admitted to Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from November 7, 2009 to December 15,2009, and retrospective analysis was performed on the maternal and fetal outcomes. Results Among the 19 cases, three were( 15. 8%, 3/19) in puerperium, who were all mild cases and recovered. Sixteen (84.2%, 16/19)women were diagnosed as H1N1 influenza during pregnancy, among which two in early pregnancy (12. 5%), seven (43. 8%) in mid-term pregnancy and seven (43. 8%) in late pregnancy. According to the severity of H1N1 influenza, six were mild cases (37. 5% ,6/16), two (12. 5% ,2/16)were severe cases and eight (50. 0% ,8/16)were critical. For these 16 pregnant women, thc two cases in early pregnancy (mild cases) were terminated after recovery from H1N1 influenza. Among the seven mid-term cases, four mild and one of the three severe and critical cases delivered till term, and two of the three severe and critical cases were delivered abdominally because of fetal death intrauterine or maternal severe complications at 27 or 23 weeks of gestation. All of the seven late pregnant cases underwent emergent cesarean section due to maternal or fetal reasons, and two fetuses died in the uterus at late pregnancy and five survived including four preterm babies and one full term baby. Altogether, nine cases (56. 3%, 9/16)underwent emergent cesarean section, and six babies born alive and five survived without any symptom of influenza, two women died (10. 5%,2/19) after the operation. Conclusions Pregnant women during late pregnancy infected by H1N1 influenza are susceptible to develop into severe and critical conditions. Termination of the pregnancy in time is effective in both life-saving of the mothers and babies and prevent neonatal infection against H1N1.
