Abstract:
The pain that women experience during labour is affected by multiple physiological and psychosocial factors and its intensity can vary greatly. Most women in labour require pain relief. We aim to summarise the evidence from Cochrane systematic reviews on the efficacy and safety of non-pharmacological and pharmacological interventions to manage pain in labour.
We identified 15 Cochrane reviews (255 included trials) and three non-Cochrane reviews (55 included trials) for inclusion within this overview. Evidence suggests that epidural, combined spinal epidural (CSE) and inhaled analgesia effectively manage pain in labour, but may give rise to adverse effects. Epidural, and inhaled analgesia effectively relieve pain when compared with placebo or a different type of intervention. Combined-spinal epidurals relieve pain more quickly than traditional or low dose epidurals. Women receiving inhaled analgesia were more likely to experience vomiting, nausea and dizziness. When compared with placebo or opioids, women receiving epidural analgesia had more instrumental vaginal births and caesarean sections for fetal distress, although there was no difference in the rates of caesarean section overall. There is some evidence to suggest that immersion in water, relaxation, acupuncture, massage and local anaesthetic nerve blocks or non-opioid drugs may improve management of labour pain, with few adverse effects. There is insufficient evidence to make judgements on whether or not hypnosis, biofeedback, sterile water injection, aromatherapy, TENS, or parenteral opioids are more effective than placebo or other interventions for pain management in labour. In comparison with other opioids more women receiving pethidine experienced adverse effects including drowsiness and nausea.
On conclusion, epidural analgesia provides effective pain relief but at the cost of increased instrumental vaginal birth.

Abstract:
The eye is considered to be the mirror for the human body and many systemic diseases have special manifestations in the eye.Pregnancy is associated with many physiological changes in the eye which should be always kept in mind by all caring physicians to optimize the medical care for the pregnant lady.In one-year retrospective review done at king Fahd hospital, the biggest referral hospital in our city, the total numbers of all pregnancies seen in the antenatal clinics were 5325, among them 214 patients were diabetics (26 were IDDM and 188 were GDM) and 174 were hypertensive (44 patients with chronic hypertension and 30 patients were gestational induced HTN).In spite that, no single consultation was written to ophthalmology. nevertheless, the patients records did not revealed any ophthalmic care done for those patients during pregnancy. In hospitals where obstetric care is provided, strong collaboration between obstetricians and ophthalmologist is mandatory to implement a clear protocol for eye care during pregnancy.

Title: GENDER EFFECT ON STUDENT' INTEREST AND PERCEPTIONS OF OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY
Biography:
Zeyad is medcial student at king saud unvirsy for health science
Abstract:
Background
Obstetrics and gynecology (OBGYN) is currently one of the professions females have just dominated in many countries of the world. With fewer males choosing OBGYN there is failure to fill all the residency positions in Saudi Arabia. The objective of the study was to find out the perceptions and interests of final year male medical students in OBGYN.
Methods
This study was survey based cross sectional study on final year male medical students in King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences (KSAUHS), Riyadh Saudi Arabia in February 2016. The questionnaire was validated, and a Cronbach alfa reliability test was 0.778.
Results
A total of 84 questionnaires were returned with 92 % response rate. 18% of all male medical students think OBGYN is a socially accepted specialty, and 32% think it is a boring specialty. Only 4 students (4.8%) were interested in OBGYN. Those interested perceived OBGYN as an advanced specialty (P= 0.036). Half of the students interested were married compared to only 5% marital status in those not interested in OBGYN (P=0.001). 88% of students who haven't in rotated in OBGYN think it is boring, while 52% of students who rotated in OBGYN don't think so (P=0.01).
Conclusion
The number of male medical students interested in OBGYN isn't increasing. In order to increase the number of obstetricians and gynecologists and improve health care, public awareness about the fact OBGYN needs male physicians should be raised.

Abstract:
Intrauterine insemination is an affordable and effective first line treatment in patients, who require artificial reproductive techniques. The success rate of IUI worldwide is 15-18%. At Friends IVF, we have tried to improve the percentage of success rate by strictly adhering to the pre-requisites for IUI and careful and intelligent selection of couples. A study was carried out at Friends IVF, that included the patients having Male Infertility mostly. Sperm count in final preparation made for IUI can be increased multifold by certain lab techniques. In few of the samples, the sperms swim up not only in Sperm Wash but also in Normal saline. Using normal saline in such patients can reduce the cost of IUI substantially. In few of the samples, sperms do not swim up, in those cases only Sperm wash or Gradient can be used. Natural Cycle stimulation or Clomiphene Citrate was used in most of the cycles, In few patients pure FSH was given.

Abstract:
Bowel perforation has been described following caesarean section. Ogilvie’s syndrome and paralytic ileus are the two most common causes of functional bowel obstruction.
We report here a case of ogilivie’s syndrome. Unfortunately, surgical intervention was late and patient died.
Cecal perforation is a rare postoperative complication after a Caesarean section. Early identification is critical for successful treatment of these patients. If a postoperative patient presents with features consistent with a bowel obstruction, prompt imaging should be performed in order to aid early diagnosis and intervention. Abdominal ultrasonography is of limited value in detecting intraluminal colonic neoplasms. Large bowel obstruction should be treated with urgency to avoid cecal perforation.

Abstract:
Intrathoracic goiters are usually located anteriorly, in the superior or anterior mediastinum, and are termed substernal or retrosternal goiters. Posterior mediastinal goiters are rare, about 10% of all intrathoracic goiters. Patients with retrosternal goiter usually have a visible or palpable cervical mass. In addition, tracheal deviation may be present with compression symptoms.
Posterior mediastinal goiter with mediastinal compressive symptoms is an indication of surgery. Lateral thoracotomy is an alternative approach for intrathoracic goiter extending into the posterior mediastinum.
We report a case of 75 years old gentleman, referred with right neck swelling, difficulty in swallowing and breathing and changes of voice. Total thyroidectomy was performed. Histopathology report showed multi nodular goiter with no evidence of malignancy. This patient had both types of extension. Both were delivered successfully through a classic neck incision without sternotomy or combined cervicothoracotomy. It would be reasonable to consider surgical management for such symptomatic goiters if there were no contraindications.
