  2. Plan • Introduction • Objective • Methods • Results • Summary

  3. Physiopathology of obstetric Fistula Pubis VVF Bladder RVF Rectum Bladder Obstructive labor Compression Obturator nerve Foot drop Vagina -Hematoma -Asphyxia -Fetal death Head Promontory Rectum WHO, UNDP, UNICEF, World Bank. IMPAC. 2003

  4. Objectives • To assess the current state of knowledge regarding the importance of obstetric fistula as a health problem, • the patients’ characteristics • and the circumstances of occurrence of the disease. • Discuss the contribution of the identified factors in Obstetric fistula prevention strategies

  5. Data Souce • Search of the literature • Identify all relevant articles • Published between 1987-2008 • Database: Medline (Pubmed, Ovid), Cochrane Trials Register, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health.

  6. SearchStrategy • Term used: • obstetric fistula, • urinary fistula, • vesicovaginal fistula, • vesico vaginal fistula, • vesico-vaginal fistula, • recto-vaginal fistula, • rectovaginal fistula, • recto vaginal fistula

  7. Variables of Interest • place of birth; • skilled birth attendance; • duration of labour; • mode of delivery; • antenatal care attendance; • age at marriage; • age at first delivery; • age at causal delivery; • parity at causal delivery; • use of family planning; • additional factors

  8. Results

  9. Teenager at first delivery • More than 84% of patients got marriage before the age of 20 • Mean age at marriage is between 14 and 16 years old • Mean age at first delivery: 17 years • Teenage status at operation: 2.5% -86 % 9 Meyer 2007; Ojanuga 1999; DHS Cameroon 2004; Wall 2004; Muleta 2004; Nafiou 2007; Ramsey 2007; Unfer 1995

  10. Teenagers delivery in Cameroon Tebeu et al. ObstetGynecolInt 21010

  11. Illiteracy • Illiteracy among OF patients: 78-96% • Maroua-Cameroon: 76% (Tebeu et al.2009) Ijaiya 2004; Muleta 2004; Muleta 1997; Jokhio 2006; Meyer 2007; Gessessew 2003; Ramsey 2007; Wall 2004; Rijken 2007; Holme 2007, 11

  12. Illiteracy in Cameroon DHS 2004

  13. Lack of Antenatal care • Lack of antenatal care: 72-92% of patients • Maroua-Cameroon: 46% • WHO recommend at least 4 ANC during each pregnancy 13 DHS Cameroon 2004; Gessessew 2003; Jokhio 2006; Ramsey 2007; Wall 2004; Home 2007; Ould el Joud 2001

  14. Duration of labor • The mean duration of labour among the fistula patients range from 2.5 to 4 days. • Labor > 24 hrs: 73- 95.7 % • OF patients have been in labour for more than 24 hours 14 Holme 2007; Arroswsmith 1994; Nafiou 2007; Muleta 2004; Ijaiya 2004; Hilton 1998; Wall 2004; Ahmad 2005; Ramsey 2007; Roenneburg 2007; Rahman 2003.

  15. Place of delivery • Home delivery in many studies: 30-44% • Delivery failure at home, then go to facility: 58-91% 15 DHS Cameroon 2004; Gessessew 20003; Ramsey 1994; Holme 2007;Meyer 2007;Hilton 1998; Ijaiya2004

  16. Home delivery in Cameroon DHS 2004

  17. Low Cesarean section rate • By many studies: 20-54% • Some studies: 6-10% • Nigeria (Ijaiya2004), • Ethiopia (Gessessew 2003) • Pakistan (Ahmad 2005 • (all with labor > 24: >80% for all) 17 Paxton 2006, DHS Cameroon 2004; Nafiou 2007; Muleta 2004; Hilton 1998; Wall 2004; Ramsey 2007; Rijken 2007; Meyer 2007; Holme 2007

  19. Association between CS rate and maternal mortality from 118 countries Maternalmortality rate per 100,000 live births Cesarean secttion rate Adapted from: Althabe 2006

  20. Grand multiparity • Study from Pakistan : >= 6 deliveries (54.43%) (Ahmad 2005) • 1 of 6 studies from Nigeria (Mean/median Parity at 6(Hilton 1998 Sources: UN 2001; Population Reference Bureau 2002 (use of modern contraception, TFR)
