High-Risk Pregnancy Care at Nirmala Hospital
High-risk pregnancy care at Nirmala Hospital is specialised medical attention provided to women who face higher-than-normal risks during pregnancy. These risks could be due to pre-existing health conditions, complications that arise during pregnancy, or factors related to the mother or foetus. The goal of high-risk pregnancy care at Nirmala Hospital is to ensure customer care and appropriate treatment for both the mother and the baby throughout the pregnancy, during delivery, and after birth. Indications for High-Risk Pregnancy Care
High-risk pregnancy care may be recommended for women who:
- Have pre-existing medical conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, or autoimmune disorders.
- Are carrying multiple foetuses (twins, triplets, etc.).
- Are of advanced maternal age (35 years or older).
- Have a history of pregnancy complications, such as preterm labour, preeclampsia, or miscarriage.
- Develop complications during pregnancy, such as gestational diabetes, placenta previa, or foetal growth restrictions.
Managing Common Conditions in High-Risk Pregnancy
Diabetes in Pregnancy
Gestational diabetes or pre-existing diabetes increases risks for both the mother and baby, including high birth weight, preterm delivery, or complications during labour. At Nirmala Hospital, our team carefully monitors blood sugar levels, provides dietary guidance, and ensures safe delivery outcomes.
Hypertension in Pregnancy
High blood pressure can lead to complications such as preeclampsia, eclampsia, or chronic hypertension. With regular monitoring and tailored treatments, our specialists manage hypertension to protect the health of both mother and baby.
Anaemia in Pregnancy
Iron-deficiency Anaemia is common during pregnancy and can affect oxygen supply to the foetus. Our specialists provide customised nutritional advice and supplements to manage Anaemia and ensure healthy foetal development.
Placenta Previa
Placenta previa occurs when the placenta partially or completely covers the cervix, increasing the risk of bleeding during pregnancy and delivery. Our team uses advanced imaging and personalised care plans to manage this condition effectively.
Placental Abruption
Placental abruption involves the premature detachment of the placenta from the uterus, which can threaten the pregnancy. At Nirmala Hospital, we provide immediate intervention and expert care to manage this condition.
Multiple Pregnancy
Carrying twins, triplets, or more increases the complexity of pregnancy and delivery. Our specialists provide close monitoring, nutritional guidance, and delivery planning to ensure the health of both the mother and her babies.
FAQs
What are the symptoms of Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes?
Gestational diabetes occurs during pregnancy when the body cannot produce enough insulin to meet the extra needs of pregnancy. It affects both the mother and baby, requiring careful management to ensure a healthy pregnancy and delivery.
