Abstract:

Major birth defects occur in 2% to 3% of liveborn infants and are the leading cause of infant mortality. The cause of most birth defects is unknown. The objectives of this thesis are to (1) assess the risk of having a birth defect in human pregnancy following maternal use of common antidepressant medications and to (2) evaluate the risk of a birth defect or subsequent adverse outcome in relation to restricted fetal growth in early pregnancy. I used data from the National Birth Defects Prevention study, a population-based case-control study of birth defects risk factors in the US to study the r

Ineffectively addressing a first-time fathers' perception of pregnancy, childbirth, and fatherhood by medical providers and other medical personnel, may lead to problems of inadequate support, increased tension, anger, concern, and fear at a personal level and between partners. The purpose of this interpretive phenomenological study was to explore the perspective of first-time fathers during pregnancy, childbirth, and fatherhood. The biopsychosocial model was used as the framework to provide the foundation for this study. Research questions addressed first-time fathers' biggest fears, deepest

Background: Newborn macrosomia is related to a range of serious health outcomes for both the baby and the mother.

Abstract:

This thesis provides a history of early modern birth figures: images of the fetus in the disembodied uterus, printed in midwifery and surgical books, which describe the variety of fetal presentations. While these images have accompanied midwifery and gynaecological texts from before the invention of print in Europe, and up to the present day, they have been widely ignored or under-valued by historians and art historians. This thesis analyses printed birth figures produced in England and other western European countries between 1540 and 1774, and argues that they are a crucial and unique resour

Abstract:

Caesarean birth accounts for a quarter of all births in England and is the most commonly performed operation. Despite this, little is known of how individual women experience planned Caesarean birth. Reviews of the literature reveal that rising rates of Caesarean birth are preceived to be problematic by women ,clinicians and policy makers but women's experiences are either absent from this debate or perceived as universally realised. This qualitative study involved listening to the stories of eight women to reveal how planned Carsarean birth was experienced, understood and constructed.

Maternal depression during pregnancy can have a negative impact on the developing child. Numerous studies have focused on postpartum depression and the influences on infant outcomes; however, there are limited data on pregnancy-related depression. The problem addressed in this study was the inadequacy and insufficiency of depression screening during the pregnancy period and access to quality-related health services for women. The purpose of this quantitative retrospective study was to test social cognitive theory on low birth weight and prenatal care adherence to pregnancy-related depression i

Abstract:

Preterm labour is one of the leading causes of perinatal mortality and morbidity. Most premature babies die before the age of five, and if they survive they face a high risk of disabilities and impairments. SP-A and SP-D are pattern recognition, innate immune molecules that are responsible for the maintenance of pulmonary immunity and surfactant homeostasis. They have been localised in the human reproductive tract and implicated in pregnancy and the initiation of labour. We hypothesised that SP-A and SP-D could play an active role in the activation of the myometrium and the timing of parturiti

Pregnancy is a state of constant physiological compensation, processes that simultaneously account for the physical needs of both mother and foetus. These changes create a complex and continuously evolving environment, one which depends on essential elements for continued optimal function. While these processes are vital to the maintenance of pregnancy, they are also pivotal to parturition, a process which relies on the actions of numerous micronutrients for essential endocrine and inflammatory pathways. As such, proper maternal nutrition is pivotal to optimal birth outcomes. Global, national

Abstract:

When the delicate hormonal balance in early pregnancy is disrupted, the consequences can be significant. We have a poor understanding of the "cross-talk" in the fetal/placental/ovarian axis that occurs throughout pregnancy and is essential for normal fetal development. This lack of knowledge challenges our ability to recognize disruptions in this axis that may be a signal for future disease. As a result, our ability to apply preventive measures against adverse obstetric outcomes, such as preterm birth (PTB), are quite limited.
