Chorioamnionitis and Risk for Maternal and Neonatal Sepsis

Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2021
Chorioamnionitis is associated with early-onset and late-onset neonatal sepsis, with limited evidence for term neonates or maternal sepsis. OBJECTIVE: To estimate the risk of maternal and neonatal sepsis associated with chorioamnionitis.

Chorioamnionitis

Definitions, 2020
Chorioamnionitis is a serious complication of the pregnancy. The ascending microbial infection from the vagina to the amniotic cavity, seems to be the main mechanism of causing an intra-amniotic infection. The most common microbes are the E Coli, aerobic

The Consequences of Chorioamnionitis: Preterm Birth and Effects on Development

Journal of Pregnancy, 2013
Preterm birth is a major cause of perinatal mortality and long-term morbidity. Chorioamnionitis is a common cause of preterm birth. Clinical chorioamnionitis, characterised by maternal fever, leukocytosis, tachycardia, uterine tenderness, and preterm ...

Detection of microbial cell-free DNA in maternal and umbilical cord plasma in patients with chorioamnionitis using next generation sequencing.

PLoS ONE, 2020
BACKGROUND:Chorioamnionitis has been linked to spontaneous preterm labor and complications such as neonatal sepsis. We hypothesized that microbial cell-free (cf) DNA would be detectable in maternal plasma in patients with chorioamnionitis and could be ...

Histological chorioamnionitis and risk of pulmonary complications in preterm births: a systematic review and Meta-analysis [PDF]

Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine, 2020
Histological chorioamnionitis is associated with significant adverse maternal, perinatal and long-term outcome. We performed a meta-analysis of 30 observational studies in order to clarify the association between Histological chorioamnionitis and ...

Clinical chorioamnionitis at term IX: in vivo evidence of intra-amniotic inflammasome activation [PDF]

Journal of Perinatal Medicine, 2018
Background The inflammasome has been implicated in the mechanisms that lead to spontaneous labor at term. However, whether the inflammasome is activated in the amniotic cavity of women with clinical chorioamnionitis at term is unknown.

Correlation between placental bacterial PCR results and histological chorioamnionitis: a prospective study on 41 placentas

Journal of Biological Research
Chorioamnionitis or intra-uterine inflammation is considered the most common infection diagnosed in labor and delivery units worldwide. It is a leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality, as well as neonatal death and sepsis.
