چکیده
Materials and Methods: This research was a case-control study conducted on 90 term pregnant women. Study group had fetal distress (abnormal fetal heart rate, meconium staining, Apgar score less than 7 in fifth minute and pH of umbilical cord arterials < 7.2) and control group did not have above complications. After fetus birth, umbilical coiling index was calculated and heparinised blood of umbilical cord arteries was sent to laboratory for checking acidity. Finally, data was analyzed using SPSS software (version 18) using t-test and Pearson correlation test.

Background: The umbilical cord is vital to the development, well being and survival of the fetus. A coil of the cord is defined as a complete 360 degree spiral course of umbilical vessels around Wharton’s jelly. Sonographically, the Umbilical Coiling Index (UCI) is defined as the reciprocal of the average distance between a pair of coils. Hypocoiled cords are those with UCI < 10 centile while h...
