Overview
• The landscape of obstetric medicine research at RBWH
• Metabolic issues in pregnancy
• Why weight matters in pregnancy and afterwards
• Why hypertension matters in pregnancy and afterwards
Why Obstetric Medicine?Major Changes in Pregnancy Care
• Increasing age of first time mothers
• Increasing BMI of pregnant women
• Increasing numbers of women who survive childhood illness and decide to have children
• Increasing numbers of women who proceed with pregnancy despite significant medical problems

Metabolic Issues in Pregnancy
1. Pregnancy is a “Metabolic Stress Test”
2. Increasing BMI and age underpin the rising incidence of gestational diabetes
3. BMI is an important predictor of pre-eclampsia, macrosomia, neonatal body composition

Remote prognosis of HDP?
• Over time, women with HDP gain consistently more weight than women who do not experience HDP (Callaway et al, AJE; 2007)

Observational Studies on Maternal Pregnancy Outcomes Following Bariatric Surgery
Does weight loss prior to pregnancy reduce the risk?
• The case of bariatric surgery:– Case control study– 79 cases mean BMI 45.9 pre LAGB, mean weight
loss 28.3 kg pre pregnancy– 79 matched controls, mean BMI 43.7

Barriers to Preconception Care
• Inadequate pregnancy planning
• Inadequate compliance with simple pre pregnancy interventions (eg folic acid)
• Inadequate recognition of overweight and obesity
• Unsuccessful attempts at pre pregnancy weight loss
