Abstract Objective To analyze the evidence available in literature regarding unsuccessful labor induction with misoprostol in full-term pregnancies. Methods This is an integrative review, carried out between January and November 2022, whose research question and descriptors were outlined using the PECO strategy. The searches were carried out in the MEDLINE, Web of Science, CINAHL, EMBASE and Scopus databases by two researchers independently as well as assessment. For the study selection and identification phase, the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) was used. The risk of bias assessment of included articles was carried out using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Results A total of 3,674 articles were identified, and 84 were read in full, of which 11 comprised the review (n=9,010 pregnant women), published between 2005 and 2021, with the majority in the United States. Regarding the level of evidence, all articles were classified as 2b, assessed according to the design of each study. The study showed evidence regarding the following factors: High BMI (greater than 30 kg/m2), nulliparity, immature bishop, cervical length (greater than 30 mm), height, ethnicity (non-Caucasians from southern Europe) and fetal weight (greater equal to 4 kg). Conclusion The objective study was achieved, having demonstrated six maternal factors and one fetal factor that can lead to unsuccessful induction. It is worth highlighting the need for evidence that incorporates the individuality of each characteristic and the contribution of this study to support the choice of the best conduct for each pregnancy on an individual basis stands out.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the prevalence of maternal alloantibodies in pregnant women at a maternity hospital in northeastern Brazil and describe their perinatal outcomes. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study reviewed maternal and newborn medical records between January 2017 and October 2018 to assess for the presence of maternal alloantibodies. RESULTS: The following maternal alloantibodies were found in the 41 cases surveyed: anti-D, 28 cases (45%); anti-C, 7 cases (11%); anti-c, 1 case (1.6%); anti-E, 4 cases (6.4%); anti-Cw, 1 case (1.6%); anti-K, 2 cases (3.2%); anti-Jka, 1 case (1.6%); anti-M, 3 cases (4.8%); anti-Fya, 2 cases (3.2%); anti-Fyb, 1 case (1.6%); anti-Lea, 5 cases (8%); anti-Leb, 3 cases (4.8%); and anti-Dia, 4 cases (6.4%). Anti-D antibodies were the most frequent cause of erythrocyte alloimmunization (80%). Fetal anemia was observed in four pregnancies based on the peak systolic velocity of the middle cerebral artery. In one case, the mother showed anti-M, and anti-Lea alloimmunization, but the direct antiglobulin test results for the newborn were negative, and no unfavorable neonatal outcomes were observed. In one case of a mother with anti-C and anti-D alloimmunization, the neonate showed anti-D antibodies only in the serological panel and required phototherapy. Neonates with plasma antibodies and jaundice requiring phototherapy only had a serological panel with anti-D, anti-C, anti-c, and anti-E antibodies. Intervention was required for 2.5% of pregnant women with positive antibody screens and 81% of newborns with positive direct antiglobulin test results. CONCLUSION: Despite being a rare condition, maternal alloimmunization by irregular antibodies can result in high perinatal morbidity and mortality.

RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether ultrasound abdominal fat measurements in the first and second trimesters can predict adverse gestational outcomes, particularly gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and identify early patients at higher risk for complications. METHODS: A prospective cohort study of 126 pregnant women at 11-14 and 20-24 weeks of gestation with normal fasting glucose levels during early pregnancy. From 126 participants with complete data, 13.5% were diagnosed with GDM, based on the cutoffs established for the peripherical blood glucose. Subcutaneous, visceral, and maximum preperitoneal abdominal fat were measured using ultrasound techniques. GDM status was determined by oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) with 75 g glucose overload, and the following values were considered abnormal: fasting glucose ≥92 mg/dl and/or 1 h after overload ≥180 mg/dl and/or 2 h after overload ≥153 mg/dl. The receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve was used to determine the optimal threshold to predict GDM. RESULTS: Maximum preperitoneal fat measurement was predictive of GDM, and subcutaneous and visceral abdominal fat measurements did not show significant differences in the prediction of GDM. According to the ROC curve, a threshold of 45.25 mm of preperitoneal fat was identified as the optimal cutoff point, with 87% sensitivity and 41% specificity to predict GDM. The raw and adjusted odds ratios for age and pre-pregnancy body mass index were 0.730 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.561-0.900) and 0.777 (95% CI, 0.623-0.931), respectively. CONCLUSION: The use of a 45.25 mm threshold for maximum preperitoneal fat, measured by ultrasound to predict the risk of GDM, appears to be a feasible, inexpensive, and practical alternative to incorporate into clinical practice during the first trimester of pregnancy.

Introduction: The majority of pregnant women with a short cervix will deliver at term and, thus, may unnecessarily receive advanced monitoring and treatment. It is still necessary to define more accurately which sub-population of women with a short cervix is at elevated risk for early delivery. Objective: To determine if vaginal microbiome composition influenced the rate of spontaneous preterm birth in women with a short cervical length. Methods: In an exploratory, observational prospective study, vaginal secretions were obtained from 591 women at 2124 week gestation. Vaginal microbiome composition was determined by analyzing the V1V3 region of the bacterial 16S ribosomal RNA gene. Results: Lactobacillus crispatus was numerically dominant in the vagina in 41.7% of subjects, followed by L. iners in 32% and Gardnerella vaginalis in 12%. In women whose cervix was ≤25mm, the sensitivity to predict an spontaneous preterm birth was 11.8%. However, when L. crispatus was not the dominant vaginal bacterium, this sensitivity increased to 81.8%. Similarly, in women with a cervical length ≤30mm, the sensitivity to predict an spontaneous preterm birth increased from 21.7 to 78.3% when L. crispatus was not the dominant vaginal bacterium.In women with a prior spontaneous preterm birth and a cervix ≤25 or ≤30mm, L. crispatus dominance was also associated with a reduced rate of spontaneous preterm birth in the current pregnancy (p<0.001). Conclusion: In pregnant women with a cervix ≤25mm or ≤30mm, the risk for an spontaneous preterm birth is increased if L. crispatus is not dominant in the vagina.
Introdução: A maioria das mulheres grávidas com colo do útero curto dará à luz a termo e, portanto, pode receber desnecessariamente monitoramento e tratamento avançados. Permanece a necessidade de definir com mais precisão qual subpopulação de mulheres com colo do útero curto está em risco elevado de parto prematuro. Objetivo: Determinar se a composição do microbioma vaginal influenciou a taxa de parto prematuro espontâneo em mulheres com colo curto. Métodos: Em um estudo prospectivo exploratório observacional, os conteúdos vaginais foram obtidos de 591 mulheres com 2124 semanas de gestação. A composição do microbioma vaginal foi determinada pela análise da região V1V3 do gene de RNA ribossômico bacteriano 16S. Resultados: Lactobacilluscrispatus foi numericamente dominante na vagina em 41,7% dos indivíduos, seguido por L. iners em 32% e Gardnerella vaginalis em 12%. Em mulheres cujo colo do útero era <25 mm, a sensibilidade para prever uma taxa de parto prematuro espontâneo foi de 11,8%. No entanto, quando L. crispatus não era a bactéria vaginal dominante, essa sensibilidade aumentou para 81,8%. Da mesma forma, em mulheres com comprimento cervical <30 mm, a sensibilidade para prever uma taxa de parto prematuro espontâneo aumentou de 21,7 para 78,3% quando L. crispatus não era a bactéria vaginal dominante. Em mulheres com taxa de parto prematuro espontâneo anterior e colo do útero <25 ou <30 mm, a dominância de L. crispatus também foi associada a uma taxa reduzida de taxa de parto prematuro espontâneo na gravidez atual (p<0,001). Conclusão: Em mulheres grávidas com colo do útero <25 ou <30 mm, o risco de parto prematuro espontâneo é aumentado se L. crispatus não for dominante na vagina.

OBJECTIVE: Studies of subcutaneous and visceral abdominal fat thickness evaluated by ultrasound as a predictor of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) have been published, but the best technique and standardization are unknown. To identify, critically evaluate, and analyze studies using subcutaneous and visceral abdominal fat as a model for predicting GDM in the first and second trimesters of pregnancy and evaluate their methodological quality. METHODS: PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were searched from May to July 2019. We included studies of any sample size performed for any duration and in any configuration. Model development and validation studies were eligible for inclusion. Two authors independently performed the eligibility assessment of the studies by reviewing the titles and abstracts. Data on study design, gestational age, diagnostic criteria for GDM, device, ultrasound fat measurement technique, and cutoff point for GDM prediction were extracted. RESULTS: The electronic search resulted in 1331 articles, of which 14 were eligible for systematic review. Different criteria for diagnosing GDM and fat measurement techniques were used. The cutoff point for subcutaneous, visceral, and total abdominal fat for predicting GDM in the first and second trimesters varied between the studies. CONCLUSION: No study validated the model for predicting GDM using subcutaneous and visceral abdominal fat measurements. External validation studies are recommended to improve the generalization of this GDM predictor in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE: To assess if the low-dose acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) would be capable of modifying endothelial function throughout pregnancy in nulliparous patients. METHODS: A double-blind, randomized clinical trial with 277 were included. A total of 139 were orally administered 100 mg/day of ASA, and 138 received placebo. Endothelial function was assessed by flow-mediated dilation (FMD) in the brachial artery before the start of medication (11-14 weeks) and 20-24 and 30-34 weeks of gestation. The intervention was maintained until 34 weeks. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the placebo and ASA groups. The comparison of FMD during pregnancy was performed using the Friedman test. RESULTS: The groups (ASA and placebo) were similar regarding to age, weight, height, and body mass index (BMI) (p > .005). The comparison of values of FMD (%) between placebo vs. ASA at 11 and 14 weeks (8.9 vs. 9.7%, p: .253), 20 and 24 weeks (8.8 vs. 10.7%, p: .152), and 30 and 34 weeks (10.7 vs. 9.8%, p: .314) did not show significant changes throughout pregnancy. We observed a significant prevalence of PE in the placebo regarding to ASA group [14 (10.2%) vs. 8 (5.8%), p: .171]. CONCLUSION: Acetylsalicylic acid did not modify the endothelial function assessed by FMD of the brachial artery during pregnancy in nulliparous women.

AIM: Vaginal delivery is a well-known risk factor for pelvic floor muscle (PFM) injuries, mainly when associated to prolonged labor, instrumental birth and perineal trauma such as episiotomy and perineal tears. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to test the hypothesis that episiotomy and severe perineal tear may increase the risk of pelvic floor damage. METHODS: We performed a systematic literature search through electronic databases including MEDLINE via PubMed, LILACS via BVS, Embase via Elsevier and Cochrane Library up to January 2019. We included articles that reported as outcome one or more morphological aspects of the PFM evaluated by ultrasonography in primiparous women three to 24 months postpartum. This review is registered in the PROSPERO database (registration number: CRD42017075750). RESULTS: the final selection was composed of 18 articles for the systematic review, and 10 for the meta-analysis. Women with levator ani muscle (LAM) avulsion were 1.77 times more likely to have undergone episiotomy (OR = 1.77, CI 95% 1.25-2.51, five trials), 4.31 times more likely to have severe perineal tear (OR = 4.31, CI 95% 2.34-7.91, two trials). Women with defects in the anal sphincters were 2.82 times more likely to have suffered severe perineal tear (OR = 2.82, 95% CI 1.71-4.67, three trials). CONCLUSIONS: Both episiotomy and severe perineal tear are risk factors for LAM avulsion and anal sphincter injury, and this can be useful for identifying women who are at greater risk of developing PFM dysfunctions.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the perceptions of pregnant women about COVID-19 and the prevalence of common mental disorders during the implemented social distancing period. METHODS: This was an observational, cross-sectional study using digital media, of pregnant women exposed to social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, in Fortaleza, Ceará, Northeastern Brazil. Common mental disorders were estimated using the modified Self-Report Questionnaire-20 (SRQ-20) scale, and the feelings towards COVID-19 were assessed using the Fear of COVID-19 scale through telephone calls made in May 2020. COX multivariate regression models were used to verify the associations. RESULTS: Of the 1,041 pregnant women, 45.7% (95%CI: 42.7-48.8) had common mental disorders (CMD). All items of the Fear of COVID-19 Scale showed a significant association with the prevalence of CMD (p < 0.001). A CMD risk gradient was observed, going from a prevalence ratio of 1.52 (95%CI: 1.13-2.04) in pregnant women with two positive items to 2.70 (95%CI: 2.08-3.51) for those with four positive items. Early gestational age and the lack of prenatal care were also associated with CMD. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of common mental disorders in pregnant women was high during the period of social distancing and was aggravated by negative feelings towards COVID-19.

Objective: The aim was to analyze the factors associated with neonatal near miss (NNM) in twin pregnancies in a public referral maternity unit in Brazil. Material and Methods: This retrospective, cross-sectional study included 697 twin newborns. Cases of fetal and neonatal deaths were excluded. Neonates were divided into those meeting NNM criteria (5 min Apgar score <7, birth weight <1,500 g, gestational age at delivery <32 weeks, use of mechanical ventilation or congenital malformation, transfer before 28 days of life) and those who did not. In the bivariate analysis, the chi-square and Fisher's exact tests were used. Variables with a p-value ≤0.20 were subjected to the multiple analyses, which followed the Poisson regression model. Results: The cohort consisted of 130 (18.7%) neonates meeting NNM criteria and 567 (81.3%) with no NNM criteria after multiple analyses, the following variables were associated with NNM: no previous pregnancy, prevalence ratio (PR): 1.38 [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.03-1.85]; >3 previous pregnancies, PR: 1.93 (95% CI, 1.38-2.69); premature rupture of membranes, PR: 1.50 (95% CI, 1.70-2.12); intrauterine growth restriction, PR: 2.28 (95% CI, 1.53-3.33); premature labor, PR: 1.63 (95% CI, 1.13-2.35); resuscitation in the delivery room, PR: 1.80 (95% CI, 1.24-2.62); and transfusion of blood products, PR: 4.44 (95% CI, 3.14-6.28). Conclusion: The study findings indicate that having had 0 or >3 previous pregnancies, premature rupture of the membranes, intrauterine growth restriction, resuscitation in the delivery room, premature labor, and transfusion of blood products were associated with NNM in twin pregnancies.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relevance of the angle of progression (AOP) and head-perineum distance (HPD) for predicting the type of delivery and duration of the second stage of labor using intrapartum ultrasonography. METHODS: In total, 221 women in labor with a single gestational sac at ≥37 weeks of gestation and fetuses in cephalic presentation underwent two-dimensional ultrasonography by transperineal route for measurements of AOP and HPD. Correlations between the type of delivery (vaginal or surgical (cesarean section and forceps)), duration of the second stage of labor, and fetal and maternal characteristics were assessed. AOP and HPD variables were separately studied in the first and second stages of labor. Multivariate logistic regression was followed in stages to identify the predictors for the surgical delivery outcome - stepwise forward method. RESULTS: In total, 153 (69.2%) women underwent vaginal deliveries, 7 (3.2%) underwent forceps deliveries, and 61 (27.6%) underwent cesarean deliveries. AOP was a statistically significant parameter in first and second stages of labor (107.8 ± 12.1° versus 100.8 ± 13.7°; p = .017), with an inverse correlation with the occurrence of vaginal delivery. HPD was a statistically significant parameter in the second stage of labor (3.42 ± 0.84 cm versus 4.17 ± 0.54 cm; p < .003), with a direct correlation with the occurrence of surgical delivery. The value of AOP that optimized the curve was 129.9° with 85% specificity and 63% sensitivity for the vaginal delivery endpoint. The value of HPD that optimized the curve was 4.3 cm with 69% specificity and 89% sensitivity for the surgical delivery endpoint. In the first phase, the variables defining the type of delivery were the following: height, body mass index, and AOP. In the second phase, the variables defining were the following: height, labor analgesia, HPD, and position of the fetal occiput. CONCLUSION: AOP and HPD determined by intrapartum ultrasonography were associated with duration of labor, which may aid in predicting the type of delivery in association with clinical parameters.

Resumo Este estudo busca refletir sobre o movimento em prol da construção das Redes de Atenção à Saúde à luz dos fundamentos hermenêuticos, notadamente, na noção de jogo (Spiel) e suas repercussões para a Saúde Coletiva. Foi pautado a partir da experiência de pesquisa avaliativa de abordagem qualitativa sobre a Rede de Atenção à Saúde Materna e Infantil desenvolvida no estado do Ceará. A discussão gira em torno de três unidades, a saber: organização e funcionamento dos serviços de saúde em redes; Jogo hermenêutico: fundamentos e relações; e Redes de Atenção à Saúde e o jogo hermenêutico: uma aproximação possível? A partir disso, foi possível compreender que o movimento em prol da constituição das Redes extrapola a dimensão técnica e a disponibilidade dos equipamentos, dispositivos e sujeitos. Por vezes, é capaz de se constituir independentemente do desenho já formatado pelos gestores e profissionais de saúde. A Rede também se constrói a partir dos próprios sujeitos, sejam eles usuários ou não, e é percebida como algo em movimento que se renova em constante repetição. Ela independe da atuação de cada um dos sujeitos que a compõem. A Rede por si só é o próprio sujeito, assim como jogo hermenêutico.
Abstract This study seeks to reflect on the movement towards the construction of Health Care Networks based on hermeneutic foundations, notably on the notion of Spiel and its repercussions for Collective Health. It was based on the experience of evaluative research of qualitative approach on the Maternal and Child Health Care Network developed in the state of Ceará. The discussion lists three units, namely: organization and operation of health services in networks; Hermeneutical game: fundamentals and relationships; and, Health Care Networks and the Spiel: a possible approach? From this, it was possible to understand that the movement towards the constitution of the networks goes beyond the technical dimension and the availability of equipment, devices and subjects. Sometimes it is able to constitute itself independently of the design already formatted by managers and health professionals. The Network is also built from the subjects themselves, whether they are users of health services or not and it is perceived as something in movement and that is renewed in constant repetition. It is independent of the performance of each of the subjects that compose it. The Network itself is the subject itself, as well as the Spiel.

Objetivo: Descrever as repercussões da gravidez no cotidiano de uma mulher. Métodos: Estudo exploratório-descritivo com abordagem qualitativa. Foram entrevistadas 25 gestantes entre 20 e 24 semanas de gestação, atendidas em uma instituição na cidade de Fortaleza (CE). A coleta de dados foi por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas, submetidas à técnica de análise de conteúdo. Foram criadas nuvens de palavras para as categorias, utilizando-se o software NVivo 11. Resultados: A análise comparativa constante permitiu a construção de duas categorias: "impacto da gravidez nas atividades diárias" e "peso corporal da gestação na moda feminina". A primeira categoria demonstrou o impacto do aumento do tamanho corporal da gestante diante das atividades comuns do dia a dia, a dificuldade para realizar certas atividades, a sobrecarga das articulações e o cansaço relacionado ao aumento do volume corporal na gestação. Os resultados da segunda categoria mostraram que as mudanças gestacionais impactam nas escolhas de vestimenta das mulheres, sendo relatadas as dificuldades para aquisição de um novo vestuário durante esta fase, a procura por lojas especializadas em moda gestante e o reaproveitamento de peças existentes com necessidade de possíveis ajustes. Conclusão: Neste estudo, possibilitou-se a análise dos sentidos atribuídos às mudanças corporais pelas gestantes e observou-se que as transformações gestacionais repercutem diretamente na realização de atividades cotidianas e nas escolhas de vestimenta de mulheres grávidas, demonstrando inúmeras dificuldades a serem compreendidas e enfrentadas durante este período.
Objective: To describe the repercussions of pregnancy on a woman's daily life. Methods: Exploratory-descriptive study with a qualitative approach. Twenty-five pregnant women were interviewed between 20 and 24 weeks of gestation, attended at an institution in the city of Fortaleza (CE). Data collection was carried out through semi-structured interviews that were submitted to the content analysis technique. Word clouds were created for the categories, using the software NVivo 11. Results: The constant comparative analysis allowed the construction of two categories: "impact of pregnancy on daily activities" and "body weight of pregnancy on women's fashion". The first category demonstrated the impact of the increase in body size of the pregnant woman facing common daily activities, the difficulty to perform certain activities, the overload of the joints and the tiredness related to the increase in body volume in pregnancy. The results of the second category showed that gestational changes impact women's clothing choices, with difficulties reported for the acquisition of new clothing during this phase, the search for stores specializing in pregnant fashion and the reuse of existing pieces in need of possible adjustments. Conclusion: The study made it possible to analyze the meanings attributed to the body changes by pregnant women and it was observed that gestational changes have a direct impact on the performance of daily activities and on the clothing choices of pregnant women, demonstrating numerous difficulties to be understood and faced during this period.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the accuracy of the Score for Neonatal Acute Physiology Perinatal Extension (SNAPPE II) as a death predictor, to determine the cutoff point for mortality, and to analyze the association of independent variables with death. METHODS: Prospective, longitudinal, hospital-based study on newborns admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) for the first time from November 1, 2016 to April 30, 2017. Newborns with less than 12 hours of length of stay at the NICU, out-of-hospital births, major congenital malformations, and inter-hospital transfer were excluded. Variables were grouped according to hierarchical framework, related to maternal characteristics (distal level), prenatal and childbirth care (intermediate level), and birth conditions (proximal level). Descriptive analyses of SNAPPE II score ranges, Receiver Operating Characteristics Curve (ROC curve) to define the cutoff point for mortality, and bivariate analysis by the Wald test and multiple logistic regression were conducted. RESULTS: After selection, the sample consisted of 247 newborns. In this study, the SNAPPE II cutoff point for mortality was 27, with sensitivity of 84.1% and specificity of 82.4%. 61% of those with a score ≥27 died. Multiple logistic regression showed an association between death and proximal-level variables: sepsis (Odds Ratio [OR] 10.68; 95% confidence interval [95%CI] 2.82-40.48; p<0.001); SNAPPE II ≥27 (OR 5.85; 95%CI 1.90-18.05; p=0.002); birth weight 750-999 g (OR 4.15; 95%CI 1.06-16.14; p=0.040); and nonuse of surfactant (OR 0.159; 95%CI 0.04-0.53; p=0.003). CONCLUSIONS: Neonatal mortality was directly proportional to increase in SNAPPE II. Score≥27 increased the odds of dying by six times compared with neonates with lower scores. The proximal variables related to health conditions and neonatal care were associated with death.

Objective: To compare maternal and perinatal outcomes between day-time and evening/night-time births in a low-risk population. Material and Methods: The present study had a retrospective and cross-sectional design. The study recruited 421 pregnant women admitted for spontaneous or induced labor, with singleton, full-term pregnancy, without comorbidities, and with birthweight between 2,500 and 4,499 g. Maternal data, including severe bleeding, need for blood transfusion, puerperal infection, and admission to the intensive care unit, and neonatal data including birthweight, Apgar scores at first and fifth minute, oxygen administration, resuscitation, admission to the neonatal care unit, infection, and blood transfusion, were evaluated. Univariate and multivariate analysis and calculation of the prevalence ratio (PR) were performed with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Results: There were no differences in factors of maternal morbidity between delivery times. Newborns delivered during the evening/night-time had a higher prevalence of infection (15.3% vs 7.9%, p=0.019, PR: 2.11, CI 95% 1.13-3.93) and hospitalization in the neonatal care unit (25.8% vs 10.4%, p<0.001, PR: 2.99, CI 95% 1.76-5.10). There was no difference in other perinatal morbidities examined. Conclusion: Evening/night-time births were associated with a higher prevalence of infection and the need for admission to an intensive care unit.

Abstract Objectives: to evaluate factors associated with neonatal near miss and death in reference hospitals. Methods: this case-control study included 364 cases and 728 controls among 4,929 births. Cases were identified by Apgar < 7 at 5 minutes, weight < 1500 g, gestational age <32 weeks, mechanical ventilation or congenital malformation. After follow-up, outcomes were reclassified into: true controls, near miss and neonatal death. Hierarchically, variables with a p-value < 0.20 were included in the multiple logistic regression. Results: the neonatal near miss rate was 54.1 per 1,000 live births, and the near-miss-to-death ratio was 2.75. Between the control and near miss groups, the predictor variables were neonatal intensive care admission [OR = 35.6 (16.7 - 75.9)] and central venous access [OR= 74.8 (29.4 - 190.4)]. Between the control and death groups, neonatal intensive care admission [OR = 100.4 (18.8 - 537.0)] and central venous access [OR = 12.7 (3.7 - 43.2)] were significant. Between the near miss and death groups, only Apgar < 7 at 5 minutes [OR = 4.1 (1.6 - 10.6)] and vasoactive drug use [OR = 42.2 (17.1 - 104.5)] were significant. Conclusion: factors associated with a greater chance of near miss and/or neonatal death were: Apgar score <7 at 5 minutes, neonatal intensive care confinement, having central venous access, and use of vasoactive drugs.
Resumo Objetivos: avaliar fatores associados à morbidade "near miss" e óbito neonatal em maternidade pública de referência. Métodos: estudo caso-controle com 4,929 nascimentos encontrou 364 casos e 728 controles. Os casos foram identificados pelos critérios: Apgar< 7 no 5° minuto, peso <1500g, idade gestacional < 32 semanas, ventilação mecânica ou malformação congênita. Reclassificou-sequanto aos desfechos: sobrevivência ao período neonatal sem critérios de near miss ("controles" verdadeiros), "near miss" e "óbito neonatal". Hierarquicamente, as variáveis com p< 0,20 foram incluídas na regressão logística múltipla. Resultados: a taxa de near miss neonatal foi 54,1 por mil nascidos vivos, a razão de near miss e óbito foi 2,75. As variáveis preditoras, entre controles e near miss foi internamento em terapia intensiva neonatal: OR 35,6 (16,7 - 75,9) e acesso venoso central: OR= 74,8 (29,4 -190,4); entre controles e óbito internamento em terapia intensiva neonatal: OR=100,4 (18,8 - 537,0)e acesso venoso central: OR 12,7 (3,7 - 43,2); entre near miss e óbito Apgar no 5°minuto < 7: OR= 4,1 (1,6 - 10,6) e uso de drogas vasoativas: OR= 42,2 (17,1 - 104,5). Conclusão: fatores associados à ocorrência de near miss e/ou óbito neonatal foram: Apgar < 7 no 5° minuto, internamento em terapia intensiva neonatal, acesso venoso central e drogas vasoativas.

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the association between delays in obstetric care and neonatal near-miss mortality events and death in a public maternity referral center. METHODS: This case-control study enrolled 142 neonates, meeting the near-miss criteria of 5-min Apgar < 7, weight < 1500 g, gestational age < 32 weeks, and use of mechanical ventilation or congenital malformation, as well as 284 controls (without the near-miss criteria), at a ratio of 1:2. After follow-up, the following outcomes were reclassified: survival of the neonatal period without the near-miss criteria (true "controls"), "near-miss," and "neonatal death." Maternal sociodemographic characteristics, prenatal care, and pregnancy resolution were evaluated. Pearson's chi-square and Fisher's exact tests were used. Simple logistic regression was performed to determine the association between the three delay factors with near-miss outcomes and/or neonatal death. The variables that had maintained values of p < 0.05 were subjected to multinomial logistic regression. RESULTS: Comparisons revealed the following associations: for controls and near-miss events, delayed access to health services due to a lack of specialized services (odds ratio [OR], 3.0; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.8-5.1) and inappropriate conduct with the patient (OR, 12.1; 95% CI, 1.3-108.7); for controls and death, absent or inadequate prenatal care (OR, 3.3; 95% CI, 1.6-7.1) and delayed access to health services due to a lack of specialized services (OR, 2.5; 95% CI, 1.1-5.6); and for near-miss events and death, absent or inadequate prenatal care (OR, 2.2; 95% CI, 1.0-5.0). Logistic regression for the combined outcome (near-miss plus neonatal deaths) revealed absent or inadequate prenatal care (OR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.2-2.8), lack of specialized services (OR, 2.8; 95% CI, 1.7-4.5), and improper conduct with the patient (OR, 10.6; 95% CI, 1.2-91.8). CONCLUSIONS: The delays in obstetric care associated with the presence of near-miss and/or neonatal death included absent or inadequate prenatal care, delayed access to health services due to a lack of specialized services, and inappropriate conduct with the patient.
