Fetal alcohol syndrome and lactic acidosis.
We recently saw a newborn infant with the fetal alcohol syndrome and lactic acidosis. The mother was 32 years old, gravida 5, para 2, with one elective abortion. One previous infant had died in the perinatal period, of massive congenital anomalies; a second infant died with the sudden infant death syndrome. The mother had a long history of chronic alcohol abuse. After she learned of the current...
متن کاملCauses and consequences of fetal acidosis.
The fetus depends on the mother for placental exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. This in turn relies on adequate maternal blood gas concentrations, uterine blood supply, placental transfer and fetal gas transport. Disruption of any of these can cause fetal hypoxia, which, despite compensatory mechanisms, may lead to acidosis. When severe and acute (lasting hours), but especially if prolonge...
متن کاملComplement and contact activation in term neonates after fetal acidosis.
AIMS To evaluate complement and contact activation after fetal acidosis. METHODS Fifteen term neonates with hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy after umbilical arterial pH < 7.10 were compared with 15 healthy neonates with umbilical arterial pH > 7.20. Determinations of the complement function and C1-inhibitor activity were performed as kinetic tests 22-28 hours after birth. C1q, C1-inhibitor, a...
متن کاملFetal electrocardiogram ST-segment analysis and prediction of neonatal acidosis.
OBJECTIVE To determine the diagnostic value of fetal ST-segment analysis (STAN) in predicting neonatal acidosis. METHODS The STAN S21 was used to monitor singleton fetuses in labor with abnormal FHR. Physicians later reviewed tracings to identify any ST events dictating intervention. Outcome measures were umbilical artery pH< or =7.15 and pH< or =7.05 at birth. The sensitivity, specificity, P...
متن کاملPrediction of Fetal Acidosis by Blood Flow Velocity Waveform of the Fetal Descending Thoracic Aorta
=AbstractZFetal descending thoracic aorta blood flow velocity waveforms were measured in 63 pregnancies. They were either delivered by elective CIS before labor (56 patients) or suffered an antefartum fetal death (7 patients). There was a significant correlation between the aorta waveforms and the cord arterial pH. A cord arterial pH less than 7.20 or an intrauterine fetal death were used as ou...
