RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: Aim: To determine the current prevalence of female infertility and characterize and identify risk factors associated with infertility in Ukraine. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and Methods: Multicenter prospective cohort study was conducted from January 2021 to December 2023 in twelve medical centers from nine regions of Ukraine. Definitions of infertility were adapted from the World Health Organization. According to the data collected from questionnaire, participants were divided into infertile and fertile groups and analyzed associated factors. RESULTS: Results: Among all the 7,618 participants in this study, the prevalence of female infertility was 24.3%. The prevalence of primary infertility was 5.9%, and the prevalence of secondary infertility was 18.4%. In logistic multivariate regression analyses, female infertility was associated with age of women (p<0.001), age of first sexual intercourse (p<0.001), history of gynecological surgery (p<0.001), marital status (p<0.001), age of marriage (p<0.001), decreased ovarian reserve (DOR) (p=0.006), family history of infertility (p<0.001), history of cervicitis (p=0.007), history of surgical abortion (p<0.001), history of endometritis (p=0.027), bacterial vaginosis (p=0.023), and aerobic vaginitis (< 0.001). CONCLUSION: Conclusions: Our data suggest a high prevalence of female infertility in Ukraine. The prevalence of secondary infertility was higher than primary infertility. Age of women, age of first sexual intercourse, history of gynecological surgery, marital status, age of marriage, DOR, family history of infertility, history of cervicitis, history of surgical abortion, history of endometritis, bacterial vaginosis, and aerobic vaginitis were associated with infertility.

OBJECTIVE: Aim: To estimate pregnancy outcomes associated with endometriosis in Ukraine. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and Methods: We performed the multicentre prospective cohort study during the period from January 1st, 2019 to December 31st, 2021. The study included pregnant women aged ≥18 years hospitalized in 17 hospitals from 15 regions of Ukraine. Logistic regression analysis provided odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS: Results: Of the 27,558 women, 990 (3,6%) reported a diagnosis of endometriosis before pregnancy. In 990 deliveries, women with endometriosis had a higher risk of hypertension in pregnancy (OR 1.2, 95% CI 1.0-1.3), preeclampsia (OR 1.4, 95% CI 1.3-1.5), severe preeclampsia (OR 1.7, 95% CI 1.5-2.3), hemorrhage in pregnancy (OR 2.3, 95% CI 2.0-2.5), placental abruption (OR 2.0, 95% CI 1.7-2.3), placenta previa (OR 3.9, 95% CI 3.5-4.3), premature rupture of membranes (OR 1.7, 95% CI 1.5-1.8), and retained placenta (OR 3.1, 95% CI 1.4-6.6). The neonates had increased risks of preterm birth before 28 weeks (OR 3.1, 95% CI 2.7-3.6), birth before 34 weeks (OR 3.2, 95% CI 2.8-3.6), being small for gestational age (OR 1.5, 95% CI 1.4-1.6), being diagnosed with congenital malformations (OR 1.3, 95% CI 1.3-1.4), and neonatal death (OR 1.8, 95% CI 1.4-2.1). CONCLUSION: Conclusions: Pregnant women with endometriosis are at elevated risk for serious and important adverse maternal, fetal and neonatal outcomes. The magnitude of these complications calls for more intensive antenatal care of pregnant women with endometriosis.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Methods of simulation training and quality assessment during obstetric emergencies are still ambiguous. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of anaesthesiologists' simulation training for emergency situations in obstetrics. METHODS: We conducted a prospective, descriptive, and comparative study to evaluate the anaesthesiologists' simulation training effectiveness during obstetrical emergencies. Data of 109 obstetrical anaesthesiologists trained over two years for invasive procedures and cardiopulmonary resuscitation, high-fidelity scenarios and medical personnel teamwork included were analyzed. We used the two-sided t-test (p < 0.05 considered significant). RESULTS: We noted during the fifth training sessions, the anaesthesiologists had a significant manipulation time decrease for all skills compared to the ones assessed during their first training session (p < 0.01). The 100-grade scale scores for all invasive techniques significantly improved during the anaesthesiologists' training (p < 0.01). Cardiopulmonary resuscitation effectiveness and team work also improved significantly during the fifth session (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: As a result of simulation training, significant improvement of speed and quality indicators, for invasive techniques in obstetrical emergency states treatment, was noted. For the fifth training sessions, there was a decrease in the practical skills execution time. The overall effectiveness and teamwork quality for cardiopulmonary resuscitation showed significant improvement.
