| Summary: | Introduction: Thyroid gland diseases are the second most frequent cause of endocrine dysfunctions in women in the reproductive period.
Work goal: To analyse the clinical condition of infants from pregnancies with thyroid gland disorders.
Techniques: The retrospective analysis included the infants born in the “Narodni front” Gynaecological- Obstetric Clinic during 2008, whose mothers had thyroid gland disorders diagnosed.
The results and Discussion: In the period under review 7.544 infants were born, whereof 46 (0.60%) were born to women with diagnosed thyroid gland disorders. Three pregnancies were twins.28.26% of the pregnant women were given therapy during pregnancy.
The distribution of body mass frequency stretched over a very broad range from 2,000 to 4,000 grams. The observed infants were dominantly male (67.40%). The percentage of preterm infants was 13.05%. The average AS amounted to 9.65 ± 0.52.
The structure of neonatal morbidity includes perinatal asphyxia (8.69%), a metabolic imbalance in 14 children as follows: hyperbilirubinemia in 11 (23.91%), hypoglicemia in 2 (4.34%), hypocalcaemia in 1 (2.17%) child. Infections in one child (2.17%).
30 of the infants (65.21%) had a normal post-natal adaptation, while 16 (34.79%) of them required a certain extent of intensive post-natal care.
Conclusion: Every high-risk pregnancy poses a danger for the infant. The asphyxia percentage in our infants is significant, which calls for the strict supervision and continuous observation of the course of delivery. |
