American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1977
With increasing use of amniocentesis for high-risk pregnancies, measurement of amniotic fluid hormone levels could prove to be a pratical value. Protein steroid hormones as well as prostaglandins in amniotic fluid are reviewed. The source and entry of each hormone, their concentrations, and their possible physiologic role in pregnancy are discussed ...

Seminars in Perinatology, 2008
The complex nature of amniotic fluid reflects contributions from many fetal systems, many functional roles, and multiple interactions with fetal maturation, obstetric, and maternal factors. Simple ultrasound measurement, probably done best with the maximum vertical pocket method, has a clinical role in fetal surveillance, substantiated by extensive ...

Amniotic fluid assessment is a tool for the evaluation of fetal well-being. Because of the uterine cavity being irregular direct evaluation is difficult and subsequently, indirect techniques have been utilized. The three ultrasound techniques currently used for the evaluation of amniotic fluid include 1) maximum vertical pocket, 2) subjective ...

Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America, 1999
Amniotic fluid embolism occurs rarely but is one of the leading causes of maternal mortality in the United States. The risk of death associated with this syndrome is 60% to 80% with half of survivors suffering long-term neurologic disability. The pathophysiology of amniotic fluid embolism is poorly understood.
