Conducta obstétrica en el embarazo posfechado
Resumen
El embarazo posfechado es aquel que supera las 40 semanas de gestación según la fecha probable de parto. Lastimosamente, no se tienen estadísticas exactas de la prevalencia de este. Sin embargo, se ha reportado en la literatura que hasta el 65 % de los embarazos en Estados Unidos superan las 39 semanas, lo cual abarcaría los embarazos posfechados. Se ha descrito la asociación entre las pacientes que superan las 40 semanas de gestación y los desenlaces adversos maternos y perinatales. A pesar de esto, no hay consenso en cuanto al manejo en estos escenarios. El objetivo de este artículo es realizar una revisión descriptiva, no sistemática, en las principales bases de datos como lo son: PubMed, Cochrane Library y Scielo, con el fin de resumir la evidencia actual de las diferentes conductas obstétricas tomadas en pacientes que cursan un embarazo posfechado, para así proponer algunas directrices en torno al manejo de esta situación.
