ORIGINAL RESEARCH – QUANTITATIVE Gestational weight gain in obese women by class of obesity and select maternal/newborn outcomes: A systematic review

Obesity and weight gain during pregnancy affect the risk of mother and fetus. Guidelines for weight gain during pregnancy are not stratified by the severity of obesity

We systematically review our first study and provide adequate information on the weight gain of obese women during pregnancy. This can be compared with current medical research guidelines. Risk difference in the selection of weight gain of obese women during pregnancy by the obesity category

As of January 2015, we have searched English and peer-reviewed journal articles using three electronic databases, article reference lists, and content notification forms. Comprehensive data showing the change in the prevalence risk

Ten papers fulfilled the selection criteria. Evaluation results were significant in gestational age, gestational age and caesarean delivery. The results represent approximately 740,000 obese women from 4 different countries. The results of the study show that consistently the weight gain during pregnancy varies with the level of obesity, the majority of obese women benefit more than the medical laboratory guidelines. Obesity women have lower risks than pregnancy periods, are at high risk of pregnancy, and their risks are different depending on obesity and weight gain during pregnancy. Combined risk of selective outcome is lowest, weight loss of grade I obese women is 5 to 9 kg, grade II obesity is less than 1 to 5 kg, grade III obese women have no weight gain during pregnancy Studies have shown.

Overweight weight gain and obesity during pregnancy are considered independent risk factors for maternal and fetal complications and result in serious lifelong consequences. These organizations question the weight gain during pregnancy, especially the recently announced Medical Institute (IOM) recommendations for obese women. Because the higher Body Mass Index Level is associated with more severe pregnancy complications such as pre-eclampsia and gestational diabetes, the International Migration Organization is also concerned with a single weight gain criterion for all obesity categories It is recommended. The IOM recommendation holds the theoretical relevance between harmful pregnancy weight gain and low birth weight (LBW), which was a concern in 1990. Less weight gain during pregnancy can often be a result than lower birth weight. In developed countries, there is no evidence that dietary supplements increase birth weight.

Weight gain due to pregnancy and the spread of obesity Raul Artal, MD, Charles J. Lockwood, MD and Haywood L. Brown, MD

In order to avoid pregnancy complications, we aimed to investigate gestational diabetes (GDM) and weight gain (GWG) during pregnancy of morbidly obese women. Observative retrospective studies have completed a study of 3284 lists of fetal pregnancies and GDM patients. Of these patients, 131 (4.0%) were classified as having morbid obesity (BMI ≧ 35 kg / m 2) before pregnancy. We compare perinatal complications of BMI group. Morbid obesity, in groups with GWG threshold ... Read More
