Abstract :
Background: Vitamin D deficiency has been shown to be related to multiple adverse pregnancy related outcomes. An observational study was undertaken to study the relationship between maternal serum vitamin D levels during peripartum period and outcome in the form of mode of delivery. Methods: This study was done in a tertiary care centre on 569 patients to study the relationship between maternal serum vitamin D levels and mode of delivery categorized into vaginal delivery (VD), (including assisted delivery) and Lower Segment Cesarean Section (LSCS). Results: A total of 569 samples of maternal and neonatal serum were analyzed for serum 25(OH)D levels. Majority (464) of mothers had sufficient Vitamin D (VDS) levels ≥30ng/ml and 105 had vitamin D deficient (VDD) levels <30ng/ml. Out of total 569 newborns; LSCS and spontaneous Vaginal Delivery were 152 (26.71%) and 417 (73.28%) respectively. The incidence of LSCS was 19.61% in the vitamin D sufficient group as compared to 58.09% in the vitamin D deficient group (p<0.0005). Conclusion: The rates of cesarean section deliveries was 2.96 times higher in mothers who had deficient Vitamin D levels.
