    Abstract Introduction: The World Health Organization defines obstetric (maternal) sepsis as organ failure caused by infection during pregnancy, childbirth, post-abortion or postpartum period. It is the third most prevalent reason for maternal death. According to statistics, sepsis caused 11 percent of maternal fatalities worldwide.
    Discussion: Physiological changes related to pregnancy may imitate the start of sepsis, which makes definitive diagnosis difficult. The definition of sepsis is gradually amended over decades. Various diagnostic tools and criteria are available.
    Conclusion: Prevention, early diagnosis, and appropriate management can reduce sepsis related maternal mortalities and morbidities. To reduce unnecessary maternal mortality, future policy development in the area of evaluation and care of obstetric sepsis is essential.

    Abstract Background: Parent to child transmission is the major mode of spread of HIV. An effective national health program (PPTCT) has been designed under NACO which helps in reducing the spread of HIV by vertical transmission and improving the life of the women and her baby.
    Methods: A retrospective study was done at a tertiary care hospital, including pregnant women registered and delivered, and those who came directly in labour at the hospital during a period of 10 years from January 2010 to December 2019. Pretest counselling, HIV testing, Post-test counselling were done, and antiretroviral prophylaxis was given as per the NACP guidelines. Sociodemographic characteristics, obstetric outcome and efficacy of PPTCT services were analysed.
    Results: Out of the 63,947 antenatal mothers included, 61,061 (95.4%) accepted HIV testing. 177 of these tested positive (0.289%) with a significant reduction in the seroprevalence over the decade. Majority of seropositive women were primigravida; housewives from urban areas, from low income and educational background and with no history of any contraceptive use. Out of 718 live births, the MTCT rate was found to be 4.5% at 6 weeks over the whole decade and was noted to be 1.8 % at 18 months which is well within the goal of PPTCT program and hence elucidating the success. Seventy-four spouses of the 177 seropositive women tested positive, 55 tested negative and 49 did not undergo the HIV testing. Decline in the number of partners not undergoing testing was elicited. The discordant couple rate in the study was 31% and showed variable trend over the decade.
    Conclusions: Our study has observed an overall increase in efficacy of PPTCT in terms of increased utilization of PPTCT through the decade, decrease in the vertical transmission and seroprevalence rate, increase in the acceptance rates of HIV testing by partner almost conquering the goal of NACO.

    Abstract Background: The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is the most challenging health crisis that we are facing today. Against the backdrop of this pandemic, it becomes imperative to study the effects of this infection on pregnancy and its outcome. Hence, the present study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of COVID-19 infection on the maternal morbidity and mortality, the course of labour as well as the neonatal outcome.
    Materials and methods: A total of 977 pregnant women were included in the study, from 1st April to 15th May 2020 at a tertiary care hospital. There were 141 women who tested COVID positive and remaining 836 patients were included in the COVID negative group. Findings were compared in both the groups.
    Results: The incidence of COVID positive pregnant women was found to be 14.43%. More patients delivered by LSCS in the COVID positive and the COVID negative group (50%) as compared to COVID negative group (47%), (
    Conclusion: There is no significant effect of COVID infection on maternal and foetal outcome in pregnancy and there is no evidence of vertical transmission of the COVID-19 infection but long-term follow-up of these babies is recommended.

Results: The incidence of COVID positive pregnant women was found to be 14.43%. More patients delivered by LSCS in the COVID positive and the COVID negative group (50%) as compared to COVID negative group (47%), (p > 0.05). Low APGAR score (0-3) was observed in 2(1.52%) neonates of COVID positive mothers and in 15 (1.91%) neonates of COVID negative mothers. Overall most of the babies were healthy. Out of all babies tested, 3 were detected positive initially which were retested on day 5 and were found to be negative. Conclusion: There is no significant effect of COVID infection on maternal and foetal outcome in pregnancy and there is no evidence of vertical transmission of the COVID-19 infection but long-term follow-up of these babies is recommended.
