The role of dysbiotic vaginal abnormalities in development of infectious inflammatory complications of neonates

The role of dysbiotic vaginal abnormalities in development of infectious inflammatory complications of neonates was studied. 310 pregnant women were examined. 136 women with different forms of vaginal microbiocenosis (bacterial vaginosis and vaginitis) formed the first (basic) group. The second (comparative) group included pregnant women with normocenosis and intermediate type of vaginal microbiocenosis (174 women).

As to neonates, Apgar score index, stature and weight and general and infectious morbidity were analyzed.

The research revealed high frequency of pyoinflammatory diseases of early neonatal period in pregnant women with dysbiotic vaginal abnormalities. Elaboration and adoption of clinico-laboratory methods of research plays the decisive role in correct diagnostics of intrauterine infections and, consequently, decrease of perinatal morbidity and mortality.
