Triplet Gestation- Prevention, Risks, & Management Dilemmas

Abstract: Abstract:The increased popularity of assisted reproductive technology [ART] has been associated with a significant increase in the incidence of multiple pregnancies. Indeed, 43.5 % of triplet and higher order multiple births in the US were generated by ART, 38.5% were attributed to ovulation-inducing drugs without ART, and 18% occurred spontaneously. The escalating frequencies of multiple gestations, combined with the inevitable increased risks for adverse perinatal outcomes, have a significant influence on t… Show more

“…Multifetal gestation brings a high risk of maternal complications during pregnancy and postnatal complications for babies specially when born prematurely. The risk of preterm delivery for triplet pregnancies is approximately 90% while in twin gestations is more than 50%, compared with only 10% incidence of preterm labor in single infants [28]. Regarding RDS, the most common risk factor detected in our study was prematurity (37.7%).…”

“…dapat untuk melahirkan per vagina, seksio sesarea, versi internal dan eksternal, dan total breech extraction. 1,14 Akan tetapi, seksio sesarea adalah rute yang disukai untuk melahirkan pasien dengan kehamilan triplet. Melahirkan pervaginal pasien triplet dihubungkan dengan meningkatnya risiko kelahiran mati, dan kematian neonatal dan infant dibandingkan dengan dilahirkan dengan seksio sesarea.…”

“…The (3D) sonographic body volume estimation is better parameter for reflecting the size of a twin and can assist the management, as sonographic 2D fetal weight estimation is not clinically applicable due to amorphous structures of the acardic twin [6]. In doubtful cases magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be offered [7].…”
