Chnur Younis Mustafa
Sulaimaniya Maternity Teaching Hospital, Iraq
Objective:
To report and analyse data from admission to
Obstetric department of maternity teaching hospital at
Kurdistan Region of Iraq at the time of instability and economic
constraints. Following restructuring obstetrics service to
provide care at lowest cost, we aim to share our experiences
with international community.
Design:
Prospective non-randomised study looking at outcome
of Obstetric referral tomaternity teaching hospital indeveloping
country
Method:
Prospective non-randomised study was performed
between 2016 and 2017. Data was collected using Microsoft
Excel and patient demography at the time of admission was
gathered. Prospectively each patient was followed up from
admission to discharge looking at the diagnosis, intervention
and outcome for both patients and babies. Data analyses was
performed using descriptive statistics.
Results:
Of 55,993 attendees 22350 cases were admitted of
which 7,493 required surgical procedure. Of 15,235 mothers
who gave birth, 5.860 required caesarean section. Total number
of born baby was 18573, of them 278 babies died (1.49%).
Majority of dead babies were premature (207, 74.4%). 27%
of mother were primigravida, the rest were multigravida. Of
babies were born, male to female ratiowas almost 1.06. overall,
1,098 neonates were admitted to Neonatal Care Unit, of them
241 died. There was two maternal mortality. Commonest
indication for caesarean section was breech presentation
followed by pre-eclampsia and ante-partum haemorrhage.
Conclusions:
Obstetric services indeveloping countries presents
a great challenge to doctors and health care professionals.
There is little known about the situation of obstetric service
at KRG of Iraq. With continued war with ISIS, KRG has faced
an economic constraint to an extent the salary has become
almost seasonal across all the institution in the country. With
the good will of healthcare professional and re-organisation of
the service, our result is better than most developing countries
across the world.
