Abstract

Background: This study explores the landscape of maternal health and its impact on neonatal outcomes, focusing on the prevalence of diverse pregnancy-related complications. Recognizing the significance of understanding these complexities, the study investigates conditions such as abruption, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), hypertension, and other factors influencing birth weight categories. Objective: To contribute nuanced insights to maternal and neonatal healthcare practices. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on a cohort of subjects, extracting data from medical records. The study encompassed various pregnancy-related complications, including abruption, GDM, hypertensive disorders, fetal growth restrictions, and other maternal conditions. Statistical analyses, including percentages and prevalence rates, were employed to elucidate the distribution of these complications within the studied population. Results: The findings reveal a diverse spectrum of maternal health conditions. Notable observations include the prevalence of GDM (8.2%), hypertensive disorders (6.6%), and post-term pregnancies (11.5%). Additionally, conditions such as abruption, fetal growth restriction, and preterm births exhibited varying frequencies. Rh-negative pregnancies accounted for 9.8%, emphasizing the multifaceted nature of maternal health complexities within the studied population. Conclusion: This study provides a comprehensive overview of pregnancy-related complications and their prevalence within the studied cohort. The findings underscore the need for personalized antenatal care strategies, early anomaly detection, and focused interventions to optimize maternal and neonatal outcomes. Recognizing the intricate relationships between maternal health conditions and birth outcomes is crucial for informing clinical decision-making and enhancing public health initiatives.
