radial amniotic fluid index as a new and accurate method for measurment of amniotic fluid volume
amniotic fluid volume (afv) is one of the important parameters in the assessment of fetal well-being. the ability of ultrasound measurements to represent the actual afv is unproven. this study was undertaken to compare correlation of conventional amniotic fluid index (afi) and radial amniotic fluid index (rafi) as a new method with actual fluid volume on phantom. as an experimental study, 10 to...
متن کاملCatecholamines in amniotic fluid as indicators of intrapartum fetal stress.
Catecholamines were measured in the amniotic fluid and in the first voided newborn urine obtained from appropriate-for-date infants of term deliveries. Catecholamine values in the amniotic fluid and urine were nearly equal when expressed in terms of creatinine. Significant positive correlations were observed between the amniotic fluid and urine of norepinephrine and epinephrine. In normal cases...
متن کاملAmniotic fluid insulin concentration as a predictor of obesity.
Longitudinal correlations were obtained between amniotic fluid insulin concentration at 32 to 38 weeks' gestation and anthropometric characteristics at the age of 6 years in 56 children of diabetic mothers. The prospective studies indicated that at the age of 6 years, as at birth, the greatest increase in weight in relation to height (relative obesity) was seen in children who experienced the g...
متن کاملAmniotic fluid as a vital sign for fetal wellbeing
Introduction: Amniotic fluid, once thought to merely provide protection and room for necessary movement and growth for the fetus, is now understood to be a highly complex and dynamic system that is studied as a data point to interpret fetal wellbeing. Methods: Assessment of amniotic fluid volume is now routine when performing a sonographic evaluation of fetal status and is an important consider...
متن کاملThe relationship between intrapartum amniotic fluid index, fetal distress and fetal acidemia.
Blood pressure ≥ 140/90 (OR = 1.3), age ≥ 35 years (OR = 1.2), pure African race (OR = 1.3) and group A blood (OR = 1.3), have all appeared to slightly increase the risk of recurrent miscarriage. As the study was very small, a larger study is needed to either confirm or refute any possible causal relationship. Age < 35 years (OR = 0.89), Arabic race (OR = 0.7), history of contraceptive use (OR ...
