Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare vaginal prostaglandins with oral misoprostol as a second line of cervical ripening after using a cervical balloon catheter. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is a retrospective monocentric study (Lille, France), according to a "before"/"after" design. The inclusion criteria were a singleton pregnancy, with a fetus in cephalic presentation, a term >37 WA, with a cervix having a Bishop score lower than 6 after a first line of maturation by cervical balloon catheter. Two groups were formed: "before" corresponding to the continuation of maturation by vaginal prostaglandins, from March 2019 to November 2019, and "after": corresponding to the continuation of maturation by oral misoprostol, from June 2020 to December 2020. The primary outcome was vaginal delivery rate. RESULTS One hundred women were included in each group. The rate of vaginal delivery was similar between the 2 groups (76% vs 81%, p=0.39), as were the times between the start of induction and the birth and between the start of induction and the transition to birth room. There was no difference in the indication for caesarean section, with in particular an identical rate of caesarean sections for induction failure (p=0.52). Subgroup analysis in obese women showed a significantly higher rate of vaginal delivery in the "after" group (OR=4.17;95% CI [1.02;17.07]). CONCLUSION The vaginal delivery rate is similar when using vaginal prostaglandins or oral misoprostol as second line cervical ripening after use of a cervical balloon catheter.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During childbirth, the performance of a systematic Couder's maneuver could be linked to a reduction in the risk of perineal tear. OBJECTIVE To know the practices and knowledge of childbirth professionals regarding the Couder's maneuver. To measure the effect of a training program for juniors. MATERIALS AND METHODS Single-center questionnaire survey of senior and junior obstetricians and midwives. Before-and-after study in juniors to evaluate maneuver training. RESULTS One hundred and twenty-five caregivers responded to the questionnaire: (19 physicians and 46 senior midwives; 21 residents and 39 midwifery students). Only one third of the respondents said they practiced the Couder's maneuver "always or almost always" (41/125, 32.8%) and less than one third felt "very comfortable" with the maneuver (34/125, 27.2%), with large differences according to profession and senior vs junior status. Being a doctor (vs midwife) was significantly related to systematic or frequent practice of the maneuver (70.0 vs 15.3%, ORMH=42.7 [9.4; 192.3]) as was being a senior (vs junior) (46.2 vs 18.3%, ORMH=15.9 [3.5; 72.9]). Less than half of the seniors surveyed had received education in maneuvering. Of those who did not practice the maneuver, the majority did not consider its systematic practice to be useful (19/26, 73.1%), and one third considered it potentially harmful (8/26, 30.8%). Theoretical and practical training of the juniors significantly improved their knowledge. CONCLUSION There are great differences in the practice of the Couder's maneuver. It deserves to be better known, practiced and evaluated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To recommend the most appropriate biometric charts for the detection of antenatal growth abnormalities and postnatal growth surveillance. METHODS Elaboration of specific questions and selection of experts by the organizing committee to answer these questions; analysis of the literature by experts and drafting conclusions by assigning a recommendation (strong or weak) and a quality of evidence (high, moderate, low, very low) and for each question; all these recommendations have been subject to multidisciplinary external review (obstetrician gynecologists, pediatricians). The objective for the reviewers was to verify the completeness of the literature review, to verify the levels of evidence established and the consistency and applicability of the resulting recommendations. The overall review of the literature, quality of evidence and recommendations were revised to take into consideration comments from external reviewers. RESULTS Antenatally, it is recommended to use all WHO fetal growth charts for EFW and common ultrasound biometric measurements (strong recommendation; low quality of evidence). Indeed, in comparison with other prescriptive curves and descriptive curves, the WHO prescriptive charts show better performance for the screening of SGA (Small for Gestational Age) and LGA (Large for Gestational Age) with adequate proportions of fetuses screened at extreme percentiles in the French population. It also has the advantages of having EFW charts by sex and biometric parameters obtained from the same perspective cohort of women screened by qualified sonographers who measured the biometric parameters according to international standards. Postnatally, it is recommended to use the updated Fenton charts for the assessment of birth measurements and for growth monitoring in preterm infants (strong recommendation; moderate quality of evidence) and for the assessment of birth measurements in term newborn (expert opinion). CONCLUSION It is recommended to use WHO fetal growth charts for antenatal growth monitoring and Fenton charts for the newborn.

[Should French pregnant women be vaccinated against pertussis during pregnancy?]. GYNECOLOGIE, OBSTETRIQUE, FERTILITE & SENOLOGIE 2022; 50:486-493.

Abstract
Many countries with a high perinatal level have started a policy of vaccination of pregnant women against pertussis. To date, France has not chosen this policy. The objective was to review knowledge on pertussis mortality in infants. Compare the strategies available to protect the infant before his first vaccination, scheduled for two months of age. We proceeded to a litterature analysis, from January 1998 to 2021. Search by the following keywords used ; "Whooping cough, vaccination, pregnancy, strategy, cocooning", on the scientific basis of "Pubmed", as well as French and foreign vaccination recommendations. Currently 90% of whooping cough deaths are concerning infants under six months of age and this mortality represents 2% of mortality in the first year of life. Vaccination at birth is not effective. The cocooning strategy, which consists of vaccinating those around the child, is expensive and difficult to implement. A systematic vaccination policy for pregnant women is effective and reasonably expensive when compared to the cocooning strategy. In England, it was recently accompanied by a 78% reduction in confirmed cases of pertussis in infants under six months of age. In conclusion, compared to cocooning strategy, pertussis vaccination of pregnant women appears more effective and cost-effective, and this with each pregnancy.

Abstract
AIMS There are few published data on the putative association between the ABO blood group/rhesus (Rh) factor and the risk of developing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Our aim was to explore the link between each one factor and GDM development. METHODS All women having given birth at Lille University Medical Center (Lille, France) between August 1st, 2017, and February 28th, 2018, were tested for GDM, using the method recommended in the French national guidelines. The risk of GDM was assessed for each ABO blood group, each Rh phenotype and combinations thereof, using logistic regression models. RESULTS 1194 women had at least one GDM risk factor. The percentage of GDM varied with the ABO group (p=0.013). Relative to group O women, group AB women were more likely to develop GDM (OR = 2.50, 95% CI [1.43 to 4.36], p=0.001). Compared with the Rh-positive O group, only the Rh-positive AB group had an elevated risk of developing GDM (OR = 3.02, 95% CI [1.69 to 5.39], p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Our results showed that Rh-positive group AB women have a greater risk of GDM. With a view to preventing GDM, at-risk individuals could be identified by considering the ABO blood group phenotype either as a single risk factor or in combination with other risk factors.

Evaluation and impact of fetal physiology training on fetal heart rate analysis. J Gynecol Obstet Hum Reprod 2021; 50:102185.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Evaluation of fetal well-being during labor is based on fetal heart rate (FHR) analysis, which requires physiology expertise. The aim of the present study was to assess medical residents' fetal physiology training in terms of theoretical knowledge, FHR interpretation, and use of second-line examinations. METHODS This single-center, prospective study of obstetrics and gynecology residents (N = 34) at CHU de Lille Hospital (Lille, France) was conducted from November 2017 to November 2018. Evaluation and training were conducted in three stages. First, residents' pre-training knowledge of FHR interpretation and use of fetal scalp blood sampling (FBS) was assessed using clinical cases. Second, a didactic training session on fetal physiology was delivered. Finally, post-training knowledge was evaluated using the same cases presented during pre-training. I: Pre-training, 3%, 11.8%, and 14.7% of residents considered their training on fetal physiology, FHR analysis, and second-line examinations, respectively, to be sufficient. Training significantly improved their theoretical knowledge, which was assessed using multiple-choice questions (median [interquartile range]: 1.5 [1.0-2.0] vs. 4.0 [3.0-4.5], p<0.001), and reduced the number of FBS requested (36.3% vs. 29.5%, p = 0.002). Krippendorff's alpha coefficient for the reproducibility of residents' responses improved significantly, reflecting greater homogenization of clinical practice decisions (alpha [95% confidence interval]: 0.60 [0.55-0.65] vs. 0.72 [0.67-0.76]). CONCLUSION Improved fetal physiology knowledge promotes more accurate FHR interpretation, better indications for second-line examinations, and greater homogenization of clinical practice decisions. Future studies should evaluate the impact of fetal physiology training on clinical practice.

How to reduce fetal scalp blood sampling? A retrospective study evaluating the diagnostic value of scalp stimulation to predict fetal wellbeing assessed by scalp blood sampling. Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol 2021; 263:153-158. [PMID: 34216939 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejogrb.2021.05.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2021] [Revised: 05/14/2021] [Accepted: 05/17/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Fetal Blood Sample (FBS) is used as an indicator of fetal acidosis during labor. Its place is discussed through the lack of randomized trials, as well as the limitations related to the technical procedure. An alternative could be the Fetal Scalp Stimulation (FSS). AIM Our objective was to describe the FSS diagnostic value to predict fetal wellbeing defined from FBS. METHODS The FSS consisted in a digital scalp stimulation for 15 s. Test was negative when an acceleration and/or a normal variability were elicited in the 2 min following. FSS was performed before each FBS which was classified as normal when pH was > 7.25. The diagnostic value was assessed by sensibility, specificity, positive and negative predictive values. FINDINGS 148 women were included in our center from February to December 2019. Of the 191 FBS procedures, when accelerations were elicited sensibility was 58,3 (36.8-77.1), specificity was 67,5 (59.3-75), positive predictive value was 20,9 (12.5-32.9) and negative predictive value was 91.7 % (95 %CI, 85-95.5). DISCUSSION FBS is considered as the gold standard in our study which could be discussed as it is abandoned in some countries because of its questioned reliability and the lack of controlled randomized trials. CONCLUSION This study suggests that FSS could be an interesting alternative adjunctive test to perform in the first instance as it seems to be reliable, non-invasive and easy to perform in order to limit FBS only to absence of acceleration after FSS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evaluate oxytocin use and impact on maternal and fetal morbidity before and after implementation of a protocol based on national recommendations. MATERIALS AND METHODS A single-center retrospective before-and-after study (Lille, France). A service protocol to harmonize the use of oxytocin was implemented in May 2017 following national recommendations. Data were collected from January to March 2016 for period 1, and from January to March 2019 for period 2. Nulliparous patients in spontaneous labor=37SA delivering a live newborn in cephalic presentation were included. The primary outcome was the use of oxytocin. RESULTS Five hundred eighty-seven patients were included, 302 for period 1 and 285 for period 2. The rate of oxytocin use was 48% (n=144) in 2016 versus 28% (n=79) in 2019 (P<0.001). Total labor time was significantly longer after protocol implementation (425.7min vs. 510.4min ; P<0.001). The cesarean section rate was identical between the 2 periods (7.0% vs. 6.0%; P=0.62). The rate of postpartum hemorrhage greater than 500mL was higher in period 1 (17.7% vs. 10.9%; P=0.019), as was the occurrence of a pH<7.05 (5.4% vs. 1.1%; P=0.004). CONCLUSION The implementation of a protocol contributed to a decrease in the use of oxytocin and thus would allow a decrease in the rate of postpartum hemorrhage and neonatal acidosis, but with an increase in the duration of labor.

Abstract
Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is one of the leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality world-wide. The arrival of intrauterine balloon devices has revolutionised PPH management. However, it seems interesting to know the situations of failure to improve the management. The objective is to define the factors related to failure of intrauterine balloon tamponade (IUBT) in women with a postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) after vaginal delivery, and especially blood loss after placement to avoid delaying management. Retrospective cohort study was conducted in 2 centers. All PPH after vaginal deliveries treated by IUBT were included. Two groups were defined (successes and failures) and compared. Failure was defined as the need of invasive procedure. Calculated area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and thresholds of bleeding at 10 min were also calculated for prediction of failure. 127 women were included. The overall success rate was 78.0 % (95 % CI 70.7-85.1 %). Blood loss at 10 min was factor prognostic of early IUBT failure. The ROC curve of blood loss at 10 min for prediction of failure of IUBT had an area under the curve of 0.876 (95 % CI 0.782-0.970). The predictive positive value of blood loss at 10 min were respectively 0.53, 0.8 and 0.94 for blood loss of 100, 200 and 250 mL. Physicians should be alerted if blood loss are more than 200 mL at 10 min after placement of IUBT and considered invasive procedure if more than 250 mL to avoid delaying management of PPH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evaluate the complications rate of cesarean section delivery based on degree of labour emergency. STUDY DESIGN Monocentric (Lille, France), retrospective study of all term, singleton, and cesarean deliveries during labour. Three groups were categorized based on the degree of emergency according to a color code: green (no time limit between surgical decision and birth), orange (birth within 30 min), and red (birth within 20 min). Scheduled cesareans were excluded. Complications were defined as minor/major and intra-/post-operative. RESULTS A total of 881 patients were included. Among these, 303 (34.5 %) were in the green group, 353 (40.1 %) in the orange group, and 225 (25.4 %) in the red group. Major intra-operative complications, mainly postpartum hemorrhage, were more frequent in the red group compared with the green group (16.9 % vs. 9.9 %, p = 0.05; OR 1.9; 95 % CI [1.1-3.1]). Among the minor complications, there was no difference on moderate postpartum hemorrhage and four times uterine artery wounds in the red group (1.7 % vs. 7.1 %, respectively; p = 0.007; OR 4.6; 95 % CI [1.6-12.6]). The overall major post-operative complication rate, mainly infectious morbidity, was 6.1 % and this was more frequent in the red group compared with the green group (12.4 % vs. 1.7 %, respectively; p < 0.0001; OR 8.5; 95 % CI [3.2-22.3]). CONCLUSION Pre- and post-operative complications of cesarean section delivery during labour (i.e., emergency cesarean) increase with the degree of labour emergency. It would be ideal to identify women in labour who are at increased risk of emergency cesarean earlier, so that the situation does not escalate to a red code cesarean.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Monitoring of vaccination coverage rates (VCRs) is essential to assess the implementation of a country's vaccine policy and its effectiveness. Through the French Vaccinoscopy study, we measured the evolution of VCRs as well as mothers' opinion towards vaccination between 2008 and 2018, before and after implementation of infant mandatory vaccination extension. METHODS This is a study based on an internet-standardised questionnaire. In 2018, a representative sample of 3000 mothers of infants 0 to 35 months of age answered on their opinion on vaccination and reported all vaccinations recorded in their child's health record. RESULTS On the period considered, infant VCRs were stable and high for diphtheria, tetanus, poliomyelitis, pertussis and pneumococcus components and progressed for measles, mumps rubella, 2 doses at 24 months of age from 45.3% in 2008 to 81.0% in 2018, hepatitis B (HepB) complete primovaccination at 6 months of age from 45.9% in 2008 to 86.3% in 2017 and 95.5% in 2018, and meningococcus C (MenC) 1 dose at 6 months of age from 43.0% in 2017 to 74.2% in 2018. In 2018, 69.0% of mothers were in favour of vaccination while this rate dropped from 80.2% in 2012 to 64.0% in 2017, and 80.8 to 89.6% perceived HepB, MenC measles and pertussis vaccinations as useful/essential, percentages in progress versus 2017. CONCLUSION Following the implementation of infant mandatory vaccination in 2018, proportion of mothers in favour of vaccination increased significantly. HepB and MenC VCRs significantly progressed between 2017 and 2018.

[PMID: 32212388 DOI: 10.1002/uog.22025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2019] [Revised: 02/26/2020] [Accepted: 03/13/2020] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between absent or reversed end-diastolic flow (ARED) on umbilical artery Doppler ultrasound and poor neurological outcome at 2 years of age after very preterm birth associated with suspected fetal growth restriction (FGR) or maternal hypertensive disorders. METHODS The study population comprised all very preterm (22-31 completed weeks) singleton pregnancies delivered because of suspected FGR and/or maternal hypertensive disorders that had umbilical artery Doppler and 2-year follow-up available included in EPIPAGE-2, a prospective, nationwide, population-based cohort of preterm births in France in 2011. Univariate and two-level multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to assess the association of ARED in the umbilical artery, as compared with normal or reduced end-diastolic flow, with severe or moderate neuromotor and/or sensory disability and with an Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) score below a threshold. This was defined as a score more than 2 SD below the mean in any of the five domains, at age 2, adjusting for gestational age at delivery. ASQ is used to identify children at risk of developmental delay requiring reinforced follow-up and further evaluation. Descriptive statistics and bivariate tests were weighted according to the duration of the inclusion periods. RESULTS The analysis included 484 children followed up at 2 years of age, for whom prenatal umbilical artery Doppler ultrasound was available. Among them, 8/484 (1.6%) had severe or moderate neuromotor and/or sensory disability, and 156/342 (45.4%) had an ASQ score below the threshold. Compared with normal or reduced end-diastolic flow in the umbilical artery (n = 305), ARED (n = 179) was associated with severe or moderate neuromotor and/or sensory disability (adjusted odds ratio (OR), 11.3; 95% CI, 1.4-93.2) but not with an ASQ score below the threshold (adjusted OR, 1.2; 95% CI, 0.8-1.9). CONCLUSION Among children delivered before 32 weeks of gestation due to suspected FGR and/or maternal hypertensive disorder who survived until 2 years of age, prenatal ARED in the umbilical artery was associated with a higher incidence of severe or moderate neuromotor and/or sensory disability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify factors related to the occurrence of severe neonatal acidosis in case of planned caesarean section. METHODS Case-control study conducted between 1997 and 2016 among women with planned caesarean delivery at term. Cases were women whose neonates had neonatal arterial pH<7,0. For each case, two planned caesarean sections with neonatal pH≥7,0 were selected as controls. Women whose fetus had a congenital malformation and those whose anesthesia was not spinal anesthesia were excluded. RESULTS Among the 5014 planned cesarean sections of the study period, 38 severe neonatal acidosis were observed (incidence of 0,76% CI95 [0,54-1,04]). Compared to 72 controls, the 36 caesareans with severe neonatal acidosis were associated with more frequent maternal obesity (BMI≥30kg/m2), higher ephedrine doses, longer time from skin incision to infant delivery, and more extraction difficulties. After logistic regression, only maternal obesity remained associated with a significant increase in the risk of severe neonatal acidosis, ORa=3,73, 95%CI (1,11-12,56). CONCLUSIONS In case of planned cesarean section, the main risk factor for severe neonatal acidosis is the existence of maternal obesity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Delivery mode of term breech presentation is still being discussed. The aim of this study was to compare the labor management of a breech presentation to a vertex presentation during a vaginal delivery attempt. METHODS It was a single-center, comparative, descriptive retrospective study from 2014 to 2017. We studied fetal heart rate (FHR) during labor and expulsion, duration of the different stage of labor, mode of delivery and neonatal outcomes for breech and vertex presentations. RESULTS Two hundred and thirty-nine patients were included whom 106 (44%) breech presentation. The use of oxytocin was more common in breech group (63,2% versus 48,1%, P=0.020). Average dilatation rate was slower for breech presentation than for vertex presentation (1.9cm/h vs. 2.8cm/h; P=0.005). There was more FHR with high risk of acidosis in the breech presentations (37.2% vs 19.1%, P=0.001) and Melchior's FHR classification were comparable in both groups. CONCLUSIONS The per-partum management of a fetus in breech presentation differs from a fetus in cephalic presentation. It must be known and anticipated for an optimal management in the delivery room.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the short- and mid-term outcomes of preterm twins by chorionicity of pregnancy. DESIGN Prospective nationwide population-based EPIPAGE-2 cohort study. SETTING 546 maternity units in France, between March and December 2011. POPULATION A total of 1700 twin neonates born between 24 and 34 weeks of gestation. METHODS The association of chorionicity with outcomes was analysed using multivariate regression models. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES First, survival at 2-year corrected age with or without neurosensory impairment, and second, perinatal, short-, and mid-term outcomes (survival at discharge, survival at discharge without severe morbidity) were described and compared by chorionicity. RESULTS In the EPIPAGE 2 cohort, 1700 preterm births were included (850 twin pregnancies). In all, 1220 (71.8%) were from dichorionic (DC) pregnancies and 480 from monochorionic (MC) pregnancies. MC pregnancies had three times more medical terminations than DC pregnancies (1.67 versus 0.51%, P < 0.001), whereas there were three times more stillbirths in MC than in DC pregnancies (10.09 versus 3.78%, P < 0.001). Both twins were alive at birth in 86.6% of DC pregnancies compared with 80.0% among MC pregnancies (P = 0.008). No significant difference according to chorionicity was found regarding neonatal deaths and morbidities. Likewise, for children born earlier than 32 weeks, the 2-year follow-up neurodevelopmental results were not significantly different between DC and MC twins. CONCLUSIONS This study confirms that MC pregnancies have a higher risk of adverse outcomes. However, the outcomes among preterm twins admitted to neonatal intensive care units are similar irrespective of chorionicity. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT Monochorionicity is associated with adverse perinatal outcomes, but outcomes for preterm twins are comparable irrespective of their chorionicity.

Abstract
PURPOSE According to national guidelines, conventional management of preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) is hospitalization until induction. Outpatient management could be another option. Our objective was to compare latency period between patients managed in hospital versus outpatients. METHODS A retrospective before/after monocentric study that occured from 2002 to 2015. Were included all patients with PPROM prior to 35 weeks with homecare inclusion criteria. The primary outcome measure was to study length of latency period (delay between PPROM and delivery). Second outcome measures were maternal and perinatal morbidities and mortalities. RESULTS Among the 395 women included after PPROM, 191 were managed as outpatients and 204 in hospital. In the outpatient group, the length of latency period was longer than in the inpatient group [39 (IQR 20 to 66) versus 21 (IQR 13 to 42) days; p < 0.001]. Clinical chorioamnionitis was observed in 30 (15.7%) in outpatient group versus 49 (24.0%) in inpatient group (p = 0.039). Concerning neonatal outcome, there were less neonatal transfer (49.2% versus 77.2%, p < 0.001), less respiratory distress syndrome (29.4% versus 47.5%; p < 0.001), less neonatal sepsis (13.9% versus 22.1%; p = 0.037), less bronchodysplasia (2.7% versus 9.8%; p = 0.004), and less pulmonary arterial hypertension (4.8% versus 10.3%; p = 0.040) in the outpatient group than in the inpatient group. CONCLUSION Home management seems to be a safe option to hospitalization in selected patients with PPROM. However, a randomized study would be required to approve those results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most pregnant women who self-report penicillin allergy are not truly penicillin-allergic and this misunderstanding often leads to administration of inappropriate antibiotic therapy. Decision algorithms have been developed to guide antibiotic selection but major discrepancies have been reported between guidelines and clinical practice. We aimed to optimize the prescription of antibiotics for pregnant women who self-reported penicillin allergy, using an educational intervention about the classification of penicillin allergies that targeted gynecologists, anesthesiologists and midwives. METHODS This quasi-experimental study assessed the effect of an educational intervention about the classification of penicillin allergy. For six months, a combination of two strategies was used, namely dissemination of printed educational materials and group education. The principal study endpoint was the appropriateness of the antibiotic therapy, defined in advance for each level of allergic risk. RESULTS The pre-intervention phase included 903 women; one year after its conclusion, the post-intervention phase began and included 892 women. The prevalence of self-reported penicillin allergy was stable over the two periods (6.8% before vs 5.4% after, P=0.24). The clinical classification of penicillin allergies was more often used after the educational intervention (68% vs 100%, P<0.001). The appropriateness of the antibiotic therapy prescribed to self-reported penicillin allergic-women increased significantly between the two periods, from 5/29 (17.2%) to 18/27 (66.7%, P<0.001). CONCLUSION An educational intervention about penicillin allergy classification was associated with an improvement in the choice of appropriate antibiotic therapy among women who had reported penicillin allergy.

Abstract
PURPOSE To estimate the maternal and fetal prognosis for attempted vaginal deliveries of fetuses in face compared with vertex presentations. To evaluate the factors associated with a cesarean during labor for fetuses in face presentation. METHODS This case-control study collected all the cases of face presentation in a university hospital level-3 maternity ward between 22 and 42 weeks of gestation over a 16-year period. For each case, we selected three control cases with vertex presentations delivered the same day. Cesareans before labor were excluded. RESULTS We compared 60 attempted vaginal deliveries of fetuses in face presentation with 174 of fetuses in vertex presentation. The cesarean rate during labor was more than three times higher for the face presentations (31.7 vs 9.2%, P < 0.0001). Arterial pH values and Apgar scores were similar in both sets of newborns. After logistic regression, the factors associated with a cesarean during labor were nulliparity and early diagnosis of the presentation (i.e., before 5 cm dilatation). The initial position (mentum-anterior vs. transverse or posterior) was not significantly associated with the mode of delivery. CONCLUSIONS In face presentations, attempted vaginal delivery triples the cesarean risk. Nonetheless, more than two-thirds of these women give birth vaginally without any impairment of neonatal condition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Delivery mode of term breech presentation is debated because of higher rate of neonatal acidosis (pH<7.15) in planned vaginal delivery than in planned caesarean section. The objective was to evaluate per-partum risk factors of neonatal acidosis in vaginal delivery for podalic fetuses. METHODS It was a single-centre, case-control retrospective study that included planned vaginal delivery in singleton term breech presentation between 2012 and 2016. The "case" group defined by neonatal pH≤7.10 and the "control" group defined by neonatal pH≥7.20 were matched. The maternal, labor, and neonatal characteristics were noted. RESULTS One hundred and thirty-two patients were included: each of 44 patients in "case" group, has been matched according to breech type (legs position) to 2 patients in the "control" group, so 88. In multivariate analysis, significant risk factors identified were oxytocin use [ORa=5.663 (95% CI=1.844-17.397)], "high risk" fetal heart rate (FHR) abnormalities according to FIGO classification [ORa=10.997 (95% CI=1.864-64.866)] and FHR abnormalities during expulsion, Melchior 2 [ORa=8.088 (95% CI=1.192-54.875)] and Melchior 4 [ORa=12.705 (95% CI=1.157-139.541)]. CONCLUSIONS These risk factors of neonatal acidemia have to be known to improve the labor management in case of breech planned vaginal delivery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In France infant vaccines protecting against 11 diseases have changed from a recommended to a mandatory status for all children born on or after January 1, 2018. Using the Vaccinoscopie survey, we measured the impact of this new vaccination policy on vaccine coverage rates (VCRs) and on mothers' perception of vaccination. METHODS Online survey with 1000 mothers of 0- to 11-month-old infants. RESULTS VCRs for at least one dose at the age of 6 months strongly progressed for diseases that previously did not meet Public Health objectives (+8 points for Hepatitis B and +31 points for meningococcal C vaccines). Mothers were more favorable to mandatory vaccination and better informed in 2018 than in 2017. CONCLUSION These first results showed a positive impact of the extension of mandatory vaccination on mothers' opinion regarding vaccination and on infant VCRs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Almost 20% of parvovirus B19 foetal infections require intrauterine transfusions. In addition, myocardial dysfunction has been observed in severe parvovirus B19 infections. One objective of an intrauterine exchange transfusion (IUET) is to avoid an overload during the transfusion. Our aim was to study the obstetrical and neonatal outcomes in cases of IUETs performed for foetal parvovirus infections and to compare our survival rate to those studies in which simple in utero transfusions were chosen. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS This was a retrospective monocentre study of all patients followed up for parvovirus B19 infections in which IUETs were performed. An IUET was indicated when foetal hydrops was observed and/or when severe foetal anaemia was diagnosed though an elevation in the middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity. The characteristics of each pregnancy and the neonatal outcomes were studied until hospital discharge. RESULTS Thirty-five IUETs were performed in 26 foetuses. The median gestational age of the first IUET was 22.6 weeks. Only one foetal bradycardia incidence was recorded during the procedure. Three medical pregnancy terminations were observed in our series, secondary to severe cerebral anomalies confirmed in the magnetic resonance imaging. Five in utero deaths occurred, in which 2 of the foetuses underwent multiple IUETs. All the neonates had normal haemoglobin levels at birth, and none were transferred to the neonatal intensive care unit. The overall survival rate was 70%. CONCLUSION IUETs exhibit a survival rate similar to that of simple intrauterine transfusions in foetal parvovirus infection cases.

Abstract
The main cause of fetal anemia is maternal red blood cell alloimmunization (AI). The search of maternal antibodies by indirect antiglobulin test allows screening for AI during pregnancy. In case of AI, fetal genotyping (for Rh-D, Rh-c, Rh-E and Kell), quantification (for anti-rhesus antibodies) and antibody titration, as well as ultrasound monitoring, are performed. This surveillance aims at screening for severe anemia before hydrops fetalis occurs. Management of severe anemia is based on intrauterine transfusion (IUT) or labor induction depending on gestational age. After intrauterine transfusion, follow-up will focus on detecting recurrence of anemia and detecting fetal brain injury. With IUT, survival of fetuses with alloimmunization is greater than 90% but 4.8% of children with at least one IUT have neurodevelopmental impairment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the prognosis of pregnancy and delivery of 13-15years old patients compared to teenagers aged of 16-17. METHODS Single-center retrospective study of a continuous series of 13-15 teenagers followed in a public maternity between 1996 and 2012 compared to a series of patients aged of 16-17 matched on the day of the delivery (two controls for a case). RESULTS Seventy-three teens 13-15 were followed during the study period, and 146 adolescents aged 16-17 were included and matched. The two groups did not differ regarding size, weight or medical history. Younger patients were more often educated than older ones (46.6 vs 27.4%, P<0.01). The incidence of congenital malformations was high but substantially identical in the two groups (9.6 vs 11.0%, NS), as well as prematurity concerned that almost one third of patients (27.4 vs 30.1%, NS). The Caesarean section rate was low (11.0 vs 10.3%, NS). The frequency of birth weight below the 10th percentile did not differ between groups (15.1 vs 19.9%, NS). CONCLUSION Teenage girls of 13-15years old have high perinatal risk (prematurity, congenital malformation), and frequently delivery vaginally. These risks do not seem superior to those of adolescent girls aged of 16-17years old.

Abstract
In France, the hepatitis B maternal-fetal transmission prevention strategy is based on serovaccination at birth. Serum therapy is to inject 30IU/kg of anti-HBs specific immunoglobulins of human origin in the first hours of life, which in practice corresponds to 1ml or 100IU. Vaccination should also be performed during the first hours of life, and a new injection should be performed at 1month and 6months. In infants less than 32weeks and/or less than 2kg, lower vaccine response leads to prescribe an additional injection at 2months. This serovaccination reduces the risk of mother to child transmission from 57 to 4 %. The failure risk factors of serovaccination are high maternal viral load (greater than or equal to 7 log) and/or the presence of HBeAg. The delivery route does not change the risk of maternal-fetal transmission of hepatitis B when serovaccination at birth was well conducted. Likewise, breastfeeding does not change the risk of maternal-fetal transmission of hepatitis B after serovaccination. It is recommended by WHO. During labor, the pH in utero should be done only when strictly necessary, the published data do not allow to conclude on the risk of transmission.

Abstract
In France, the prevalence of chronic hepatitis B is about 1% in pregnant women (usually asymptomatic carriers of HBsAg). The risk of maternal-fetal transmission of hepatitis B is particularly high when viral load measured by PCR is higher in mothers (above 7 log) or HBeAg is present. In case of maternal-fetal transmission of hepatitis B, the risk to the newborn of developing subsequent chronic hepatitis B is very high (90%), with long-term complications such as cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The prevention of maternal-fetal transmission is based on systematic testing for hepatitis B during pregnancy, followed by serovaccination of the newborn at birth. If necessary, amniocentesis can be realised but will avoid the realization of a transplacental gesture. In case of high viral load, the establishment of a maternal antiviral treatment with lamivudine or tenofovir from 28SA can further reduce the risk of transmission. Given the low resistance it induces, tenofovir should be used preferentially.

Abstract
When bulky fibroids are discovered during pregnancy, they can become acutely complicated. The question of their resection thus arises. The authors report a case of a woman who was diagnosed at eight weeks' gestation by ultrasound and then by MRI, with a uterine fibroma measuring 22x12x15 cm.

Neonatal outcome after fetal anemia managed by intrauterine transfusion. Eur J Pediatr 2015; 174:1535-9.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In-utero transfusion is now well under control and improves the survival of foetuses monitored for fetal anemia with a survival rate of more than 80 %. The aim was to evaluate short-term neonatal outcome after fetal severe anemia managed by intrauterine transfusions. We did a retrospective study of all neonates born after management of severe fetal anemia (n = 93) between January 1999 and January 2013 in our regional center. The two main causes of anemia were maternal red blood cell alloimmunization (N = 81, 87 %) and Parvovirus B19 infection (N = 10, 10.8 %). In the alloimmunization group, phototherapy was implemented in 85.2 % of cases with a maximum level of bilirubin of 114.4 ± 60.7 (mg/dl). Transfusion and exchange transfusion were, respectively, required in 51.9 % and in 34.6 % of cases. One neonate presented a convulsive episode, and we observed three neonatal deaths. In the parvovirus group, none of the child had anemia at birth and no management was necessary. CONCLUSION Contemporary management of Rhesus disease is associated with encouraging neonatal outcomes. In case of Parvovirus infection, no specific management is necessary at. But, in all cases of fetal anemia, children should be followed up with particular attention to neurologic development. WHAT IS KNOWN • In-utero transfusion is now well under control and improves the survival of fetuses monitored for fetal anemia. • Limited studies are available on the effect of IUT on postnatal outcome in infants with a history of fetal anemia. What is New: • Contemporary management of severe Rhesus disease is associated with encouraging neonatal outcomes. • The majority of infants can be managed with phototherapy and a limited number of top-up transfusions and exchange transfusions. In case of Parvovirus infection, the short-term neonatal outcome is excellent.

Abstract
During pregnancy, the occurrence of aortic dissection is a rare event immediately threatening fetal and maternal prognosis. Its occurrence is more common in cases of connective tissue disease. But the absence risk factor shall not exclude or delay diagnosis. We must learn to think about it, because the prognosis is highly dependent on time management. The clinical presentation of this medical and surgical emergency varies, and pregnancy adds its own symptoms. We have to ask without hesitation that echocardiography or chest CT be performed since these diagnostic methods are both reliable and available.
