چکیده
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to estimate the predictive ability of electronic fetal monitoring (EFM) patterns immediately prior to delivery for acidemia at term birth. STUDY DESIGN This was a 4-year retrospective cohort study of 5388 consecutive singleton, nonanomalous gestations of 37 weeks or longer. The primary exposure was the EFM pattern in the 30 minutes preceding delivery. EFM patterns were prospectively interpreted using Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) nomenclature as well as non-NICHD measurements of decelerations. The primary outcome was umbilical cord arterial pH of 7.10 or less. RESULTS Four NICHD-defined EFM features within the 30 minutes prior to birth demonstrated the greatest association with acidemia: repetitive prolonged decelerations (area under the curve [AUC] 0.81), baseline tachycardia (AUC 0.80), repetitive variable decelerations (AUC 0.79), and repetitive late decelerations (0.78) after adjusting for nulliparity, fever, prolonged first stage, and obesity. A non-NICHD measure, total deceleration area, demonstrated superior predictive ability for acidemia (AUC 0.83, P = .04). CONCLUSION A non-NICHD measure of deceleration frequency and severity in the second stage performed superior to 4 NICHD EFM features for predicting fetal acidemia.

BACKGROUND Information regarding growth hormone (GH) therapy in neonatal patients with methylmalonic academia (MMA) is lacking. We present our experience with GH therapy in neonatal patients with MMA. METHODS Four neonatal patients with mut 0 type MMA were identified through newborn screening for elevated propionylcarnitine (C3) levels. GH therapy (0.6 IU/kg/week, subcutaneously) was prescrib...

OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to evaluate the accuracy of computer analysis of fetal heart rate (FHR) and ST event signals in prediction of neonatal acidemia. STUDY DESIGN One hundred forty-eight FHR tracings were evaluated to identify red alerts provided by the system, based on automated analysis of FHR and ST event signals, and compared with the occurrence of umbilical artery aci...
متن کاملA Newborn with Propionic Acidemia Mimicking Urea Cycle Defect
Neonatal-onset propionic acidemia is the most common form of disorder. A 9-days old new born admitted to our hospital with lethargy suggested urea cycle defect at first look due to lack of metabolic acidosis, normal ketone and anion gap in laboratory evaluations. The case mimicking urea cycle defect, which was diagnosed as neonatal-onset propionic acidemia by specific tests, was presented becau...
