【 摘 要 】

Background: Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (IHCP) is a hepatic disorder associated specifically with pregnancy. It is found to affect both mother and fetus. It requires detailed clinical and biochemical evaluation for optimal feto-maternal outcome. Objectives: To study the demographic profile, clinical features and obstetric outcome in patients with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy and to assess correlation between serum bile acid levels and perinatal outcome. Material and methods: This was a prospective study conducted on 150 pregnant women with IHCP who delivered at our tertiary care centre, Shri Mahant Indiresh Hospital, Dehradun from September 2018 – June 2020. The relationship between serum bile acid levels and fetal complications was analysed with binary logistic regression method. Results:100 µmol/L. The correlation between serum bile acid levels with onset of labour and mode of delivery was not statistically significant (p-value 0.16 and 0.556 respectively). The correlation between serum bile acid levels with meconium stained liquor, NICU admission and prematurity was found to be statistically significant with p-value of <0.001, 0.007 and 0.018 respectively. Conclusion: Symptomatic women should be subjected to estimation of serum bile acid levels so that appropriate treatment and timely intervention can be done to optimize obstetric outcome.
