Indications contributing to the increasing cesarean delivery rate.
Emma L. Barber,Lisbet S. Lundsberg,Kathleen Belanger,Christian M. Pettker,Edmund F. Funai,Jessica L. Illuzzi +5 more
TL;DR: Among primary cesarean deliveries, more subjective indications (nonreassuring fetal status and arrest of dilation) contributed larger proportions than more objective indications (malpresentation, maternal-fetal, and obstetric conditions).
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This case demonstrates SARS-CoV-2 invasion of the placenta, highlighting the potential for severe morbidity among pregnant women with Covid-19.
Journal ArticleDOI

Christian M. Pettker,Stephen F. Thung,Errol R. Norwitz,Catalin S. Buhimschi,Cheryl Raab,Joshua A. Copel,Edward Kuczynski,Charles J. Lockwood,Edmund F. Funai +8 more
TL;DR: A systematic strategy to decrease obstetric adverse events can have a significant impact on patient safety, and this initiative significantly reduced the Adverse Outcome Index.
Journal ArticleDOI
Screening for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus: Are the Criteria Proposed by the International Association of the Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups Cost-Effective?
Erika F. Werner,Christian M. Pettker,Lisa C. Zuckerwise,Michael Reel,Edmund F. Funai,Janice Henderson,Stephen F. Thung +6 more
TL;DR: The IADPSG recommendation for glucose screening in pregnancy is cost-effective, and the model is most sensitive to the likelihood of preventing future diabetes in patients identified with GDM using postdelivery counseling and intervention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proteomic profiling of the amniotic fluid to detect inflammation, infection, and neonatal sepsis.
Catalin S. Buhimschi,Vineet Bhandari,Benjamin D. Hamar,Mert-Ozan Bahtiyar,Guomao Zhao,Anna K. Sfakianaki,Christian M. Pettker,Lissa K. Magloire,Edmund F. Funai,Errol R. Norwitz,Michael J. Paidas,Joshua A. Copel,Carl P. Weiner,Charles J. Lockwood,Irina A. Buhimschi +14 more
TL;DR: In this study, proteomic analysis of amniotic fluid was shown to be the most accurate test for diagnosis of intra-amniotic inflammation, whereas addition of the MR score to the Gram stain provides the best combination of tests to rapidly predict infection.
