Home blood pressure monitoring in the antenatal and postpartum period: A systematic review meta-analysis
Kalafat, Erkan; Benlioglu, Can; Thilaganathan, Basky; Khalil, Asma (Elsevier BV, 2020-01-01)
Recent evidence suggests that home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) is an effective way of managing women with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) without increasing adverse outcomes. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate the safety and efficacy of HBPM during pregnancy.
Prognostic Value of Maternal Cardiovascular Hemodynamics in Women With Gestational Hypertension and Chronic Hypertension in Pregnancy
Kalafat, Erkan; Perry, Helen; Bowe, Sophie; Thilaganathan, Basky; Khalil, Asma (Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2020-08-01)
This study aimed to assess the prognostic value of cardiovascular assessment in women with gestational hypertension or chronic hypertension for the risk of preeclampsia and need for closer antenatal surveillance. This was a prospective study of pregnancies complicated by gestational hypertension or chronic hypertension presenting to St George's Hospital, between January 2015 and May 2018. A noninvasive ultrasonic cardiac output monitor was used to obtain cardiovascular variables of cardiac output (CO) and s...
Maternal and Perinatal Outcomes of White Coat Hypertension During Pregnancy A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Johnson, Sonia; Liu, Becky; Kalafat, Erkan; Thilaganathan, Basky; Khalil, Asma (Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2020-07-01)
The aim of this meta-analysis is to investigate whether white-coat hypertension (WCH) has an adverse effect on maternal, fetal, and neonatal outcomes. Medline, EMBASE,, and Cochrane Library databases were searched electronically in December 2019. The outcomes were compared between pregnant women with WCH and normotensive controls, women with chronic hypertension, gestational hypertension or any hypertensive disorder of pregnancy. Twelve studies were eligible for inclusion in the systematic review. Women wit...
Ultrasound in labor admission to predict need for emergency cesarean section: a prospective, blinded cohort study
Karaaslan, Onur; Islamova, Gunel; Soylemez, Feride; Kalafat, Erkan (Informa UK Limited, 2019-11-12)
Objective: To assess whether assessment with ultrasound could improve the detection of emergency cesarean section (ECS) in laboring women. Methods: Women who presented with symptoms of active labor or women in need of labor induction were invited to participate in the study. Women included in the study were evaluated with ultrasonography for fetal biometry and vaginal examinations for Bishop score assessment. The main aim in this study was determining factors associated with ECS due to fetal distress and ob...
Angiogenic Marker Prognostic Models in Pregnant Women With Hypertension
Perry, Helen; Binder, Julia; Kalafat, Erkan; Jones, Stuart; Thilaganathan, Basky; Khalil, Asma (Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2020-03-01)
Angiogenic markers such as PlGF (placental growth factor) and sFlt-1 (soluble Fms-like tyrosine kinase-1) have been shown to be useful for predicting adverse outcome in women suspected of having preeclampsia. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the prognostic value of angiogenic markers and maternal risk factors in pregnant women with hypertension. This was a prospective study of pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, or chronic hypertension presenting to 1 of 2 tertiary...
