Mild polyhydramnios defined a s&gt;50 and &lt;100 cm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>, and severe polyhydramnios defined as \u2265100 cm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>. The background population consisted of 8,347 pregnant women from the same hospital. Outcome measures were compared using \u03c6<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> test or Fisher's exact test. <jats:italic>Results.<\/jats:italic> The incidence of polyhydramnios was 2%, with 66.7% of cases mild, and 33.3% were severe polyhydramnios. The study population had an increased risk of emergency (19 versus 10.5%, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.001) and elective (11.3 versus 5.0%, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.001) caesarean section, as well as perinatal death (1.2 versus 0.3%, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.05) compared to the background population. In cases of severe polyhydramnios, there was an increased risk of caesarean section (44.6 versus 23.1%, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.005), birth weight &gt;4,000 g (28.6 versus 14.3%, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.05), and need for neonatal care (8.9 versus 0.9%, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.01) compared to mild cases. Apgar score &lt;7, perinatal death and structural malformations only occurred in women with severe polyhydramnios. <jats:italic>Conclusion.<\/jats:italic> It is reasonable to distinguish between mild and severe polyhydramnios regarding special attention and follow\u2010up, as caesarean section and perinatal morbidity and mortality are related to the degree of polyhydramnios. A two\u2010diameter pocket\u2265100 cm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> could be used to separate mild from severe cases.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1080\/00016340701447569","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,11,17]],"date-time":"2007-11-17T12:28:50Z","timestamp":1195302530000},"page":"1427-1431","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Prevalence of polyhydramnios at a Danish hospital \u2013 a population\u2010based study"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"86","author":[{"given":"ANNE","family":"BUNDGAARD","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"BETINA","family":"RISTORP ANDERSEN","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"LINE","family":"RODE","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"MORTEN","family":"LEBECH","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"ANN","family":"TABOR","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,12,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","first-page":"136","article-title":"An overview of hydramnios","volume":"10","author":"Boylan P","year":"1986","journal-title":"Semin Perinatol"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00006250-199911000-00025"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0301-2115(97)00250-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9378(89)90527-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/pd.1970110824"},{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_2_6_7_2","first-page":"197","article-title":"Polyhydramnios \u2013 problems and treatment","volume":"17","author":"Moise KJ","year":"1993","journal-title":"Semin Perinatol"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00006250-199203000-00012"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0301-2115(96)02551-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00003081-200212000-00009"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mob.2000.107325"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0002-9378(03)00859-7"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1097-0096(199706)25:5<249::AID-JCU5>3.0.CO;2-D"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1471-0528.1990.tb02499.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00383-004-1240-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9378(95)90643-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00003081-199706000-00004"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7863\/jum.1991.10.3.149"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00003081-199706000-00005"}],"container-title":["Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1080%2F00016340701447569","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/obgyn.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1080\/00016340701447569","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,27]],"date-time":"2023-09-27T07:14:28Z","timestamp":1695798868000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/obgyn.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1080\/00016340701447569"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2007,12]]},"references-count":18,"journal-issue":{"issue":"12","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2007,12]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1080\/00016340701447569"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1080\/00016340701447569","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0001-6349","1600-0412"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0001-6349","type":"print"},{"value":"1600-0412","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2007,12]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2010-12-31","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
