ABSTRACT
Background: Heterotopic pregnancy carries a significantly higher maternal mortality and morbidity due to rupture of ectopic gestation. Hence, early diagnosis and management is crucial. Incidence in the general population is increased due to increased incidence of pelvic inflammatory diseases. The five common clinical signs of heterotopic pregnancy are abdominal pain, adnexal mass, signs of peritoneal irritation, hypovolumic shock, and uterine fundus larger than menstrual date. Therefore, for early diagnosis of Heterotopic pregnancy a holistic approach and thorough pelvic ultrasound is crucial to reduce mortality and morbidity in such cases.
KEYWORDS: Heterotopic pregnancy; intrauterine; laparotomy ultrasound.

ABSTRACT
Background and objectives: Age is an important determinant of psychiatric illness. The overall prevalence of mental and behavioural disorders tends to increase with age due to normal ageing of brain, deteriorating physical health and cerebral pathology .Disorders such as depression, anxiety, cognitive and psychotic disorders have a high prevalence among elderly. This study was planned to assess the prevalence and pattern of psychiatric morbidity, medical morbidities, sociodemographic factors associated.
Method: Cross-sectional study where urban elderly subjects were selected by random sampling technique, those who met inclusion criteria were assessed on MMSE,GHQ-30,MINI-plus,GDRS, and Modified Kuppuswamy scale for assessment of socioeconomic status.
Results: The prevalence of psychiatric morbidity amongst urban elderly was found to be 26% ,less in comparison to those reported in earlier studies from India. However the pattern of different disorders was found to be similar. Psychiatric morbidity was found to be more in female gender (76.9%), young old age group (61.52%), literates (84.59%), widowed /unmarried/single (61.52%), middle (38.21%) and low socioeconomic status (38.21%), nuclear families (69.12%). The Current study found statistically a significant association between psychiatric morbidity and age (p value=0.01), literacy (p value=0.02), marital status (p value=0.02), socioeconomic status (p value=0.02) and type of family (p value=0.02). 66.14% of elderly with psychiatric morbidity were found to have hypertension.
Conclusion: Larger studies carried over a longer period of time are recommended for future research. Geriatric clinics will prove helpful in early diagnosis of mental illness.
KEYWORDS: Elderly adults; psychiatric morbidity; physical illness.
