Effect of maternal oral hydration therapy in oligohydramnios. Īkter MD, Kabir N, Shah MS, Islam F, Tasnim S. Int J Reprod Contracept Obstet Gynecol 7(2):671−677. Correction with oral hydration improves maternal and perinatal outcome in women with third trimester isolated oligohydramnios. Additional water intake via oral can be a strategy for oligohydramnios therapy in pregnant women.Īggarwal P, Patra S. The additional amount of water intake per day required by pregnant women with oligohydramnios to increase AFI to normal ranges from 1,500 to 2,500 ml depending on the condition of each pregnant woman. Oral maternal hydration gave a better effect than intravenous maternal hydration on AFI. Result showed that additional amount of water intake for pregnant women with oligohydramnios without maternal/fetal abnormalities in the third trimester (28−37 weeks) can increase AFI. Out of 391 articles, eight articles that met these criteria for anaylsis. We used MeSH headings (hydration pregnancy) for search keyword, Inclusion criteria were subjects who were pregnant women with oligohydramnios (without any pathological disorder in the mother and fetus), the outcomes include AFI of <5 cm, study design was prospective cohorts and clinical trials, consumption of plain water (non-calorie beverages) and language restriction applied for articles published in English. “water intake”, “oligohydramnios”, and “amniotic fluid index”. Article searches were conducted and data was obtained from “SCOPUS”, “EBSCO”, “PUBMED”, “COCHRANE” and “Google Search” databases using the following keywords: “hypovolemic”, “dehydration” “pregnancy” “outcome”, “hydration”. This systematic review aimed to answer whether an additional amount of water intake can increase the Amniotic Fluid Index (AFI) in pregnant women with oligohydramnios.
