Abstract

Backgroundpatients with chronic rheumatic inflammatory diseases (CRID, i.e. rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or spondyloarthritis (SpA)) have been reported to have poorer pregnancy outcomes than the general population.Objectivesto describe the pregnancy outcomes of singleton in patients with CRID in France in the past decade.Methodsthis is an analysis of the French Health Insurance claims database (SNDS), which represents 87% of the French population) from 2008 to 2016. To be included in the analysis patients had to be identified as RA or SpA according to existing diagnostic algorithms, to have at least one pregnancy declaration in the database, and to have continuous health insurance from 1-year before pregnancy onset to 1-year after end of the pregnancy or until death (if death occured before the 1-year-period after the end of pregnancy) to be included. Only the first singleton pregnancy occurring during the study period was included in this analysis. Both maternal and pregnancy outcomes were considered. Outcomes were identified either by ICM-10 codes or hospital discharge summaries discharge between 2008-2016.ResultsAmong the 35 737 identified adult females with a CRID diagnosis (40.7% with RA and 59.3% with SpA), 27 722 (78%) had a pregnancy during the study period. 11 274 (42%) had received at least one DMARD prior to the pregnancy and were included in the analysis. Among them, only 4025 (36%) were exposed to DMARDs during pregnancy.Mean (SD) age of females at the start of the pregnancy was 32 (5) years, and mean (SD) disease duration was 4 (4) years. Pregnancy ended before 13 WG in 21% and after 37 WG in 70% cases. Live-birth represented the most frequent pregnancy outcome (76.9%), and overall 34.7% patients presented at least one unfavorable outcome (see Table 1).Table 1.Unfavourable outcomeN(%)Pregnancy outcomesMiscarriage ()579 (5.3%)Abortion91 (0.8%)Stillbirth48 (0.4%)Preterm delivery (>= 22WG and )779 (7.1%)Low weight at birth ()287 (2.6%)Perinatal mortality (22WG to 6 days of life)2 (0%)Maternal outcomesSevere maternal infection*211 (1.9%)Newborn outcomesHospitalisation in neonatal intensive care > 48h in full-term newborns (after 37 WG)95 (0.8%)Neonatal mortality (27 first days of life)2 (0%)Severe infection * during first year603 (5.3%)ConclusionMore than 75% pregnancies in patients with CRID resulted in a live-birth. Prevalence of miscarriage was surprisingly low, probably related to under-coding. Maternal and infant outcomes seemed comparable to general population. Whether medications had an impact on such outcomes is currently under evaluation.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared
