Keywords:
Maternal outcome, Fetal outcome, Oligohydramnios, AFI ≤ 5Abstract
Introduction: Oligohydramnios is a serious condition to maternal and fetal health. It is a clinical condition that is characterized by a sonographic amniotic fluid index (AFI) of 5cm. The current study was carried out in a government tertiary care hospital to investigate maternal and perinatal outcomes in oligohydramnios. Material and Methods: Present study was a hospital-based, cross-sectional, observational study conducted from July 2019 to June 2020 among pregnant women admitted in the labor room/ antenatal ward at Govt. Tertiary care Hospital with gestational age more than 37 weeks and AFI ≤ 5 cms. Study Outcomes were induced or spontaneous labor, mode of delivery, APGAR score at 1, 5 min, birth weight, NICU admission, and perinatal death. Data was collected in a Microsoft excel sheet and analyzed accordingly. Data is presented as frequencies and proportions. Results: After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria total of 170 patients were included in the present study. The most common age group in our study was of 21- 25 years (66.5 %), followed by 26-30 years age group (21.2 %). In the present study 62.4 % of patients in our study were primigravida, 35.3% were G2-G5 patients.
