Behavioral states in the fetus near term.
On the basis of comparison and analogy it can be stated. that in the mature fetus behavioral states comparable to those seen in the newborn infant, i.e. quiet sleep, active sleep and even some kind of wakefulness do exist (1). These states can be identified fairly well from heart rate and motor activity patterns. According to evaluation of 8 hour recordinqs of FHR and fetal movements in the fet...
متن کاملBehavioral states and breathing activity in the fetus near term.
Measurement of fetal breathing movements (FBM) has found considerable clinical interest recently, because it is thought to be predictive of fetal health or compromise. However, from our investigations on fetal state behavior [7, 8] methods for assessing FBM generally used so far seem to be inadequate and results are suspect of being unreliable: in the fetal lamb and in the rhesus monkey fetus F...
متن کاملThe moral status of the near-term fetus.
Continuing a dialogue begun in an earlier issue of the Journal of Medical Ethics (1988 Mar; 14(1): 3-4, 18-24), the authors reaffirm their position that third trimester fetuses should be given the same moral status as persons, and respond to Gillon's criticism that their view would not permit killing the fetus to save the mother. They argue that newborns possess the moral and legal status of p...
متن کاملCerebral leucine uptake and protein synthesis in the near-term ovine fetus: relation to fetal behavioral state.
Behavioral/sleep state activity may impact on synthetic processes within the brain, thus accounting for the developmental change in such activity and suggesting a role in the brain's growth and development. We have therefore determined the cerebral uptake of leucine and [(14)C]leucine during continuous tracer infusion as measures of leucine metabolism in relation to behavioral state activity, a...
متن کاملLong-term hypoxia enhances proopiomelanocortin processing in the near-term ovine fetus.
Secondary stressors in long-term hypoxic (LTH) fetal sheep lead to altered function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. Although ACTH is considered the primary mediator of glucocorticoid production in fetal sheep, proopiomelanocortin (POMC) and 22-kDa pro-ACTH (22-kDa ACTH) have been implicated in the regulation of cortisol production in the ovine fetus. This study was designed to deter...
