Description of intervention(s) / exposure
To study pregnant women at risk of thrombophilia who received anticoagulation therapy according to the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists 2004 guidelines “Thromboprophylaxis During Pregnancy, Labour and after Vaginal Delivery” and compare their obstetric outcomes with a matched cohort of women without thrombophilia-risk.
The patients’ medical records will be reviewed by a trainee of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists and supervised by senior Obstetricians. All patients were co-managed by a haematologist who assessed the patients and determined the need for anticoagulation and the appropriate anticoagulant and regimen as per the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists 2004 guidelines “Thromboprophylaxis During Pregnancy, Labour and after Vaginal Delivery” and its subsequent edition in 2009 “Green-top Guideline 37a”. The data will be collected from January 2007 to December 2010.
