Overview

A multicenter retrospective cohort study examines adverse outcomes in twin pregnancies with maternal anemia.

Key Points

  • The study aims to evaluate the impact of maternal anemia on maternal and neonatal outcomes in twin pregnancies.
  • Conducted as a multicenter retrospective cohort study.
  • Included women with twin pregnancies delivering between 2005 and 2021.
  • Analyzed outcomes comparing those with maternal anemia and normal hemoglobin levels.
  • Used univariate and multivariate analyses to adjust for confounders.
  • Prevalence of maternal anemia upon admission was 16.8%, affecting 840 women.
  • Anemia independently increased the risk of adverse neonatal outcomes for both twins (aOR 1.81 for twin A, aOR 1.77 for twin B).
  • Anemia was associated with a higher risk of preterm delivery, cesarean delivery, and NICU admission.
