Continuous transcutaneous carbon dioxide measurement from the fetal scalp during labor and during first minutes of extrauterine life.
An electrode for continuous transcutaneous carbon dioxide (tcPco2) monitoring was attached to the fetal scalp in 25 consecutive vaginal deliveries. In six patients the electrode fell off or was deliberately removed when the fetal head was on the pelvic floor, while eight patients were delivered with the electrode in situ, making it possible to study changes in the fetal carbon dioxide level whe...
متن کاملFetal scalp sampling in labour.
In the linked randomised controlled trial, Wiberg-Itzel and colleagues compare the effectiveness of two methods of diagnosing hypoxia in the fetus during labour— scalp pH analysis and scalp lactate analysis.1 Fetal wellbeing during labour depends on several factors—an adequate supply of oxygenated maternal blood reaching the placental intervillous space, gas exchange across an undamaged placent...
متن کاملContinous infusion of Remifentanil plus Ketamine compared with continous Remifentanil for pain relief in labour
Abstract Background and objective: Pain relief during labour is an important determinant of a women’s birth experience. There are numerous pain relief techniques which can be used either with or without pain medication. The aim of our study was to compare the effect of remifentanil alone and its effect in pain relief while using with ketamine during labour. Methods: After obtaining informed co...
متن کاملFetal electrocardiogram (ECG) for fetal monitoring during labour.
BACKGROUND Animal and human studies have shown that fetal hypoxaemia during labour can alter the shape of the fetal electrocardiogram (ECG) waveform, notably (1) the relation of the PR to RR intervals and (2) elevation or depression of the ST segment. Technical systems have therefore been developed to monitor the fetal ECG during labour as an adjunct to continuous electronic fetal heart rate mo...
متن کاملProtocol for a randomised controlled trial of fetal scalp blood lactate measurement to reduce caesarean sections during labour: the Flamingo trial [ACTRN12611000172909]
BACKGROUND The rate of caesarean sections around the world is rising each year, reaching epidemic proportions. Although many caesarean sections are performed for concerns about fetal welfare on the basis of abnormal cardiotocography, the majority of babies are shown to be well at birth, meaning that the operation, with its inherent short and long term risks, could have been avoided without comp...
