目前不建议在妊娠23周之前进行剖腹产,除非是产妇适应症,即使在陈述不当的情况下。这些建议是基于缺乏剖宫产后新生儿结局和生存率改善的证据,以及在此早期胎龄与剖宫产相关的产妇风险。然而,随着新生儿复苏措施和产科干预措施的改进,评估围手术期剖宫产对新生儿的潜在益处的研究报告发现不一致.
本研究旨在比较剖宫产分娩的复苏婴儿与妊娠22周和23周经阴道分娩的复苏婴儿的1年生存率。
我们进行了一项基于人群的队列研究,调查了美国2007年至2013年期间胎龄为220/7至236/7周的所有复苏活产。主要结局是妊娠22周和23周时不同分娩途径(剖宫产与阴道分娩)的婴儿1年生存率。次要结果变量包括存活超过24小时的新生儿的婴儿存活率,新生儿存活率,和生存的长度。次要分析还包括根据胎儿表现分层的不同分娩途径队列之间的婴儿存活率的比较。类固醇暴露,和通风。关于复合不良产妇结局的信息仅限于2011年至2013年期间分娩的婴儿(首次报告这些项目时),并被定义为输血的要求。交付后的计划外手术室程序,计划外子宫切除术,和重症监护病房入院;还比较了妊娠22至23周分娩的不同分娩途径队列之间的复合不良产妇结局.多变量logistic回归分析用于确定剖宫产与婴儿生存率以及其他新生儿和产妇结局之间的关系。
剖宫产分娩的复苏婴儿在妊娠22周(44.9vs23.0%;P<.001)和23周(53.3vs43.4%;P<.001)时的存活率更高。多变量logistic回归分析表明,在22周时通过剖宫产分娩的婴儿(调整后的相对风险,2.3;95%置信区间,1.9-2.8)和23周(调整后的相对风险,1.4;95%置信区间,1.2-1.5)妊娠比阴道分娩的患者更有可能存活。当队列仅限于存活超过生命最初24小时的新生儿时,剖宫产分娩的顶点新生儿在22周时存活的可能性不高(调整后的相对风险,1.2;95%置信区间,0.9-1.7)或23周(调整后的相对风险,1.1;95%置信区间,0.9-1.3)妊娠。复合不良产妇结局的风险增加(调整后的相对风险,1.7;95%置信区间,1.1-2.7)与妊娠22至23周的剖宫产有关。
在复苏者中,剖宫产与1年后的生存率增加有关。孕周220/7至236/7周出生的婴儿,尤其是在非顶点表示的设置中。然而,剖宫产与产妇发病率增加有关.
Cesarean delivery is currently not recommended before 23 weeks\' gestation unless for maternal indications, even in the setting of malpresentation. These recommendations are based on a lack of evidence of improved neonatal outcomes and survival following cesarean delivery and the maternal risks associated with cesarean delivery at this early gestational age. However, as neonatal resuscitative measures and obstetrical interventions improve, studies evaluating the potential neonatal benefit of periviable cesarean delivery have reported inconsistent findings.
This study aimed to compare the survival rates at 1 year of life among resuscitated infants delivered by cesarean delivery with those delivered vaginally at 22 and 23 weeks of gestation.
We conducted a population-based cohort study of all resuscitated livebirths delivered between 22 0/7 and 23 6/7 weeks of gestational age in the United States between 2007 and 2013. The primary outcome was the rate of infant survival at 1 year of life for different routes of delivery (cesarean vs vaginal delivery) at both 22 and 23 weeks of gestation. The secondary outcome variables included infant survival rates for neonates who survived beyond 24 hours of life, neonatal survival, and the length of survival. A secondary analysis also included a comparison of the infant survival rates between the different routes of delivery cohorts stratified by fetal presentation, steroid exposure, and ventilation. Information about composite adverse maternal outcomes were limited to infants who were delivered between 2011 and 2013 (when these items were first reported) and were defined as a requirement for blood transfusion, an unplanned operating room procedure following delivery, unplanned hysterectomy, and intensive care unit admission; the composite adverse maternal outcomes were also compared between the different delivery route cohorts for deliveries occurring between 22 and 23 weeks of gestation. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to determine the association between cesarean delivery and infant survival and other neonatal and maternal outcomes.
Resuscitated infants delivered by cesarean delivery had higher rates of survival at 22 weeks (44.9 vs 23.0%; P<.001) and at 23 weeks (53.3 vs 43.4%; P<.001) of gestation regardless of fetal presentation. Multivariable logistic regression analysis demonstrated that infants who were delivered by cesarean delivery at 22 weeks (adjusted relative risk, 2.3; 95% confidence interval, 1.9-2.8) and 23 weeks (adjusted relative risk, 1.4; 95% confidence interval, 1.2-1.5) of gestation were more likely to survive than those delivered vaginally. When the cohort was limited to neonates who survived beyond the first 24 hours of life, vertex neonates born by cesarean delivery were not more likely to survive at 22 weeks (adjusted relative risk, 1.2; 95% confidence interval, 0.9-1.7) or 23 weeks (adjusted relative risk, 1.1; 95% confidence interval, 0.9-1.3) of gestation. An increased risk for composite adverse maternal outcomes (adjusted relative risk, 1.7; 95% confidence interval, 1.1-2.7) was associated with cesarean delivery at 22 to 23 weeks of gestation.
Cesarean delivery is associated with increased survival at 1 year of life among resuscitated, periviable infants born between 22 0/7 and 23 6/7 weeks of gestation, especially in the setting of nonvertex presentation. However, cesarean delivery is associated with increased maternal morbidity.
