Accuracy of the fetal cerebroplacental ratio for the detection of intrapartum compromise in nonsmall fetuses
2018
Objective: To study the accuracy of the cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) for the detection of intrapartum fetal compromise (IFC) in fetuses growing over the 10th centile.Methods: This was a prospective...
Unexpected middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity values in the normal fetal population. Are they a matter of concern?
2018
AbstractObjective: The aim of this study was to investigate in the fetus the relationship between unexpected high middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (middle cerebral artery (MCA) peak sy...
Which is the best ultrasound parameter for the prediction of adverse perinatal outcome within 1 day of delivery?
2021
To compare the accuracies of several sonographic parameters for the prediction of adverse perinatal outcome (APO) prior to delivery.This was a prospective study of fetuses attending the day hospital unit of a tertiary referral hospital that were scanned at 34-41 weeks and gave birth within 24 h of examination. APO was defined as a composite of abnormal intrapartum fetal heart rate or intrapartum fetal scalp pH7.20 requiring urgent cesarean section, neonatal umbilical cord pH7.10, 5' Apgar score7 and postpartum admission to neonatal or pediatric intensive care units. The accuracies of the middle cerebral, vertebral and umbilical arteries pulsatility index multiples of the median (MoM), the c…
Birth-weight differences at term are explained by placental dysfunction and not by maternal ethnicity. Study in newborns of first generation immigran…
2020
The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of ethnicity and cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) on the birth weight (BW) of first generation Indo-Pakistan immigrants' newborns.This was a retrospective study in a mixed population of 620 term Caucasian and Indo-Pakistan pregnancies, evaluated in two reference hospitals of Spain and Italy. All fetuses underwent a scan and Doppler examination within two weeks of delivery. The influence of fetal gender, ethnicity, GA at delivery, CPR, maternal age, height, weight and parity on BW was evaluated by multivariable regression analysis.Newborns of first generation Indo-Pakistan immigrants were smaller than local Caucasian newborns (mean BW mean= 3…
