Abstract
Objective
Analyze Group B Streptococcus (GBS) infection in late-pregnancy pregnant women in Shanghai, the risk factors of GBS infection, and its impact on pregnancy outcomes, providing guidance for early prevention and treatment in clinical practice.
Methods
We selected 12132 late-pregnancy pregnant women admitted from January 2022 to December 2022 as the research subjects. Based on the GBS test results of reproductive tract secretion samples from pregnant women, 210 cases of GBS positive pregnant women were randomly selected as the observation group, and 200 cases of GBS negative pregnant women were selected as the control group. The risk factors of infection and the impact on pregnancy outcomes were compared between the two groups.
Results
The GBS colonization rate of pregnant women in this study was 6.52%;The incidence of Vaginal delivery and Neonatal infection in GBS positive group was significantly higher than that in GBS negative group(P<0.05); With Neonatal infection as the dependent variable, and the GBS infection, Vaginal delivery and GDM of the elderly and women in late pregnancy as independent variables, the results showed that GBS infection of women in late pregnancy was an independent risk factor for Neonatal infection.
Conclusion
Clinical practice should attach great importance to GBS infection in late pregnancy, strengthen GBS screening in late pregnancy, and actively implement the strategy of intrapartum antibiotic intervention (IAP), which is of great significance in reducing the vertical infection rate of maternal and infant GBS and improving the quality of newborn birth.
