Global Burden of Meconium-Stained Amniotic Fluid: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Prevalence With Descriptive Synthesis of Determinants. [PDF]

Health Sci Rep
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Meconium‐stained amniotic fluid (MSAF) is a common intrapartum finding associated with adverse perinatal outcomes. Comprehensive global estimates of its prevalence and determinants are lacking. This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to estimate the global pooled prevalence of MSAF and classify its associated factors.
