“…It affects approximately 20-25% of all clinically recognised pregnancies. 1 In this present study, we investigated the possible relationship between anxiety, depression and TA and compared the prevalence of anxiety and depression disorders in patients with and without TA. The most important finding of this study is that roughly half of the patients with TA had moderate or severe anxiety and depression disorder, and these prevalence rates were higher than the rates for healthy control subjects.…”

“…Only 50% of TA actually lead to complete miscarriage and pregnancy loss, but this risk is substantially lower if fetal cardiac activity has been confirmed. [1][2][3][4] After sonographic confirmation of an intrauterine viable fetus, 95% to 98% of threatened abortions continue beyond 20 weeks of gestation. [5][6][7] Although the actual cause of the TA is frequently unclear, in most cases, the cause of the bleeding is due to a minor condition that requires no treatment.…”

ABS TRACT Objective: Threatened abortion (TA) is a fairly common complication in early pregnancy and is a leading cause of maternal hospitalisation during pregnancy. Understanding the emotional impact, psychological aspects and psychiatric consequences of this fairly common complication of early pregnancy is therefore an important contribution to obstetric care and public health. Hovewer, prospective case-controlled studies specific to anxiety and depression disorders in patients with TA are very limited. The aim of this prospective case-control study was to investigate the possible relationship between anxiety, depression and TA and compare the prevalence of anxiety and depression levels in pregnant women complicated with and without TA. Material and Methods: A prospective study was conducted between September 2013 and August 2014. A total of 94 consecutive women with TA who were hospitalized and 120 healthy pregnant women without any signs and symptoms of miscarriage, were included in the study. Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) were administered to patients during the psychiatric interview. Results: The mean BAI scores in TA study and healthy control groups were 18.90±10.52 and 8.24±5.24, respectively (p<0.001). The mean BDI scores in TA study and healthy control groups were 18.07±8.49 and 7.47±6.22, respectively (p<0.001). Conclusion: The findings of this study indicated a potential link between TA and anxiety and depression disorders. Therefore, patients with TA during pregnancy should be evaluated in terms of anxiety and depression disorders as much as their medical conditions. Medical professionals should be sensitive to psychological consequences of TA.Key Words: Abortion, threatened; anxiety; depression; pregnancy ÖZET Amaç: Düşük tehdidi (TA) erken gebeliğin oldukça sık bir komplikasyonudur ve gebelik sırasındaki hastaneye yatışların önde gelen bir sebebidir. Erken gebelikteki bu oldukça yaygın komplikasyonun duygusal etkisini, psikolojik yönlerini ve psikiyatrik sonuçlarını anlamak bu nedenle obstetrik bakım ve halk sağlığı için önemli bir katkıdır. Bununla birlikte, TA hastalarında anksiyete ve depresyon bozukluklarına özgü prospektif vaka-kontrollü çalışmalar oldukça sınırlıdır. Bu prospektif vaka-kontrollü çalışmanın amacı düşük tehdidi ile olası anksiyete ve depresyon iliş-kisini araştırmak ve anksiyete ve depresyon seviyelerini TA ile komplike olan ve olmayan gebe kadınlarda karşılaştırmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Eylül 2013 ile ağustos 2014 tarihleri arsında prospektif bir çalışma gerçekleştirildi. Toplam 94 TA'lı hastaneye yatırılan kadın ve düşük semptom ve bulgusu olmayan 120 sağlıklı gebe çalışmaya dahil edildi. Psikiyatrik görüşme sırasında katılımc-ılara Beck anksiyete ölçeği (BAI) ve Beck depresyon ölçeği (BDI) uygulandı. Bulgular: Ortalama BAI skoru TA ve sağlıklı kontrol grubunda sırasıyla 18,90±10,52 ve 8,24±5,24 idi, (p<0,001). Ortalama BDI skoru TA ve sağlıklı kontrol grubunda sırasıyla 18,07±8,49 ve 7,47±6,22 idi, (p<0,001). Sonuç: Bu çalışmanın bulgula...

“…We found no increased risk of pre‐eclampsia among women who bled during pregnancy compared with those who did not (ORa 0.96; 95% CI 0.67–1.28). Previous studies evaluating the association between bleeding in early pregnancy and pre‐eclampsia have attained mixed results, but generally point to the absence of any strong association when all types of bleeding are aggregated (7–10).…”

“…Weiss et al (7) found a 40% increased risk of pre‐eclampsia in women with light bleeding during the first trimester of pregnancy in comparison to women without bleeding, whereas women with heavy bleeding did not have elevated risk. Dadkhah et al (8) found a 35% increased risk for women bleeding during the first half of pregnancy, but the association was not statistically significant. In contrast, others have reported decreased risks of pre‐eclampsia after first trimester bleeding or bleeding of unknown origin during the second half of pregnancy (9,10).…”

This is a prospective study conducted to examine the possible benefit of antibiotic prophylaxis in reducing the symptoms of threatened miscarriage as well as decreasing the rate of progression into spontaneous miscarriage in women with first trimester vaginal bleeding. This study was conducted at Al Thawra General Hospital over a year (from Jan. to Dec 2016). Ninety-two women with threatened miscarriage during the first trimester were included (case group) and compared to 90 pregnant women without vaginal bleeding with similar parity and gestational age. Amoxicillin-clavulanate drug was given for all cases of the study group during vaginal bleeding. Both groups were monitored up to 28 weeks gestational age. Among 92 women with threatened miscarriage, only three cases (3.2%) had spontaneous loss (P < 0.001). Vaginal bleeding was significantly relieved within 3 days of antibiotic administration (P < 0.00). Results of this study give evidence that antibiotic prophylaxis for women with threatened miscarriage reduces the amount and duration of vaginal bleeding, and decreases the rate of progression into spontaneous miscarriage.
