“…Based on several case‐controlled studies and meta‐analyses, the risk of venous thromboembolism during pregnancy and puerperium is greatly increased due to the maternal hypercoagulable states . However, no case‐controlled studies have confirmed the role of pregnancy and puerperium in the development of BCS.…”

We examined the differences in the aetiological distribution of BCS between the West and China. Several recommendations should be considered in Chinese BCS patients: (i) screening for hyperhomocysteinaemia and MTHFR mutation should be regularly performed; (ii) screening for MPNs, PNH, and anti-phospholipid syndrome should be selectively performed; (iii) inherited anti-thrombin, protein C, and protein S deficiencies should be actively explored; (iv) screening for FVL and prothrombin G20210A mutations may be unnecessary; and (v) the clinical significance of pregnancy and puerperium, poverty with bacterial infections and unsanitary environments, and family history as possible risk factors should never be neglected.

“…The risk of VTE that can manifest as deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism was significantly higher among postpartum women than among pregnant women . A systematic review and meta‐analysis validated the higher morbidity of VTE in pregnant and postpartum women . In this perspective, several studies have suggested that SSNHL during the pregnancy or postpartum periods may be linked to vascular occlusion in the microcirculation due to blood coagulation and fibrinolysis .…”

Objectives/Hypothesis Pregnancy‐induced systemic physiological changes appear to be associated with reversible hearing changes in pregnant/postpartum women. However, most studies are case reports due to the rare occurrence of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) during pregnancy. We aimed to evaluate the risk of SSNHL during the pregnancy and postpartum periods. Study Design A longitudinal case‐control study using a nationwide population cohort. Methods Using the Korean National Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service, we collected data from 63,331 pregnant/postpartum participants who were matched 1:2 by age, income, region of residence, and medical history with 126,662 control participants. We included participants who had International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD‐10) codes indicating delivery (O80–O84). For SSNHL (ICD‐10 code H91.2), we included only those participants who underwent audiometry and were treated with steroids. The incidence of SSNHL was measured for the periods corresponding to pregnancy (conception through delivery) up to 1 year postpartum in the pregnant participants. Results During the pregnancy period, the SSNHL rate was not higher (19.5 per 100,000) compared with the control group (60.7 per 100,000). The adjusted odds ratio of SSNHL during pregnancy was 0.32 (95% confidence interval: 0.16‐0.65, P = .002). The SSNHL rate during the postpartum period (37.9 per 100,000) was similar to that of the control group (36.3 per 100,000). The adjusted odds ratio of SSNHL during the postpartum period was 1.04 (95% confidence interval: 0.64‐1.71, P = .867). The risk of SSNHL in the patients during the pregnancy/postpartum period was not higher than that in controls, regardless of age and specific subperiod. Conclusions The pregnant and postpartum women were not at higher risk of SSNHL. Level of Evidence NA Laryngoscope, 130:E237–E242, 2020

“…The importance of ambulation must be discussed with the patient and her family in the case of high-risk or Cesarean births given the increased risk of deep vein thrombosis with prolonged inactivity (Meng, Hu, Peng, & Zhang, 2015). Limited ambulation and avoidance of fi ber inherent in cold food (fruit, vegetables) also increases the risk of developing constipation.…”

As the population in the United States grows more diverse, nurses caring for childbearing women must be aware of the many cultural traditions and customs unique to their patients. This knowledge and insight supports women and their families with the appropriate care, information, and resources. A supportive relationship builds trust, offers guidance, and allows for the new family to integrate information from nurses and other healthcare providers with the practice of certain perinatal cultural traditions. The Asian Indian culture is rich in tradition, specifically during the perinatal period. To support the cultural beliefs and practices of Asian Indian women during this time, nurses need to be aware of and consider multiple factors. Many women are navigating the new role of motherhood while making sense of and incorporating important cultural rituals. The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of perinatal cultural practices and traditions specific to the Asian Indian culture that perinatal nurses may observe in the clinical setting. Cultural traditions and practices specific to the pregnancy and postpartum period are described together with symbolism and implications for nursing practice. It is important to note that information regarding perinatal customs is provided in an effort to promote culturally sensitive nursing care and may not pertain to all Asian Indian women living in the United States.
