Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The transplacental passage of maternal antibody may result in a variety of adverse fetal effects including thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, hemolysis and thyroid disease. Both fetal hypo and hyper thyroidism may occur and maternal hypothyroidism particularly during the 1st trimester is associated with impaired fetal neurological development and delayed mental and motor development.
Hydroxychloroquine (CQ), the hydroxyl derivative of chloroquine, is an antimalarial agent which is widely used, either alone or in combination with other agents, in the treatment of SLE, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and various other autoimmune diseases.
Hydroxychloroquine is safe during pregnancy, as it is not associated with an increased rate of congenital malformations. However, isolated cases of ocular (retinal pigment deposits) and auditory abnormalities were reported.
An increase in high-frequency hearing threshold is the earliest change in the auditory function for most drug induced hearing losses, including the irreversible damage caused by antimalarials.
The investigators therefore will use audiological methods for detection of hearing impairment in children delivered for mothers receiving antimalarials during pregnancy with rheumatic diseases.
