MULTIPLE PREGNANCY, ANTENATAL CARE PROBLEMS AND THEIR SOLUTIONS RESULTS

Aim of the work. The aim of our study is to summarize the course of pregnancy and delivery in multiple pregnancies in modern conditions.Materials and methods. The analysis of the pregnancy course, labor and perinatal outcomes was carried out in 182 women with diochorionic and 86 patients with monochorionic twins and 40 women with a singleton pregnancy. Multiple pregnancies were proved to be a monochorionic (MH) and diochorionic (DH) that is a high risk factor for perinatal complications. The research included clinical and laboratory examination metods, study of hormonal function of fetoplacental complex (FPC), transvaginal ultrasound examination. Statistical processing of data was carried out using the package of applied programs Microsoft Office Excel 2010 and StatSoft Statistica 6.1.Results and discussion. In the analysis of pregnancy the abortion threat was detected in 51 (59.3%) women with monochorionic and 34 (62%) women with diochorionic twins. Preeclampsia during pregnancy complicated in 26 (30.2%) and 43 (23.6%) patients, with monochorionic and diochorionic placentation type, respectively. A frequent complication of both the MH and DH twins was anemia, which was found in more than half of the surveyed (56.9 and 51%, respectively). Delivery in the case of multiple pregnancies is also much more complicated and is terminated surgically three times more often than in singleton births. The most frequent indications for operative delivery were first breech fetus, fetal distress during pregnancy and childbirth, FGR, severe preeclampsia, premature detachment of normally situated placenta, anomalies of labor activity. These perinatal losses were equally observed both after cesarean section and after spontaneous labor and amounted to 4% at monochorionic and 1.7% at diochorionic twins.The frequency dependence of identified lesions at pregnancy with twins was established by chorionic. Careful observation of the patients with multiple pregnancies in the antenatal period, the prevention of the most frequent complications, ultrasound monitoring of early pregnancy allows a differentiated approach to the management of pregnancy and childbirth, helping to reduce perinatal morbidity and mortality.Conclusions. Multiple pregnancies occur with a large number of complications compared with singletons. Thus, the increase of frequency of multiple pregnancy influences the obstetric and perinatal indicators, pushing this issue in a number of the most pressing issues of modern obstetrics and perinatology
