Topic: Predictors Of Urinary Tract Injury In Postoperative Women Presenting With Oliguria After Pelvic Surgery
Description: Background: There is an increasing incidence of urinary tract injury UTIN after gynaecological or obstetric surgeries. Acute kidney injury is often a differential to be excluded.Aim: To identify factors that are associated with UTIN in the setting of postoperative oliguria in women who have had pelvic surgeries.Methods: This prospective cohort study will include women presenting to the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital LASUTH with postoperative oliguria. Data will be collected on preoperative status; intraoperative events; and postoperative clinical, laboratory and radiological findings till the patient is discharged. Patients with UTIN will be compared with those without urinary tract injury to determine predictors of urinary tract injury.Expected Outcome: This study may identify factors associated with UTIN that may be used in the initial evaluation and triage of postoperative patients with oliguria before definitive investigations

Teenage births in Lagos: A retrospective review of 32 consecutive cases at a tertiary institution
Introduction: Teenage pregnancies are associated with high morbidity and mortality emanating from multiple social, economic and physiological factors. A high prevalence has been consistently reported in Nigeria. This study described the characteristics and delivery outcomes of females with teenage pregnancy.Methods: A three-year retrospective study of 32 pregnant teenagers admitted for delivery was conducted at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital LASUTH . Parturient medical records were reviewed for demographic and obstetric characteristics and neonatal outcomes.Results: Their ages ranged from 14 -19 years with a mean of 17.6 6.6 years: 34% 11 were married and 31% 10 were single. Two in five had primary or tertiary level education; 3% had secondary education; 40% reported unplanned pregnancies and 34.4% had anaemia. Teenage pregnancy increased from nine, in 2014 to 20, in 2016. There were no significant associations between the parturient educational level, parity, marital status and booking status p &0.05 . However, the neonatal APGAR scores and body mass index BMI of the booked and unbooked teenagers differed significantly p=0.049 and p=0.007 respectively .Conclusion: The rising trend of teenage births warrants decisive strategies for reduction. Promoting antenatal care for teenage mothers will improve maternal and perinatal outcomes.Keywords: Adolescent pregnancy; Maternal outcome; Perinatal outcome; Teenage birth.
