Amniotic pressure in disorders of amniotic fluid volume [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Amniotic pressure (AP) has been assumed to be raised in both oligohydramnios and polyhydramnios, but has not previously been measured. The aims of this thesis were (i) to characterize AP in human pregnancies with normal amniotic fluid volume (ii) to ...

Amniotic Fluid Index: Correlation with Amniotic Fluid Volume

American Journal of Perinatology, 1992
We calculated the amniotic fluid indexes (AFIs) of 310 women on 459 occasions. Normative data were analyzed and compared with data in several high-risk groups. In the normal gestations there was a progressive increase in AFI with advancing gestation until 32 weeks, after which there was a decline.

Life in the amniotic fluid

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1969
This presentation relates to multiple facets of amniotic fluid changes associated with fetal life. The composition of amniotic fluid is contrasted with that of fetal urine and the implications with respect to the origin of amniotic fluid are discussed. Amniography, fetal radiography, and angiography are presented with respect to recent developments and

Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 2004
Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) (also known as anaphylactoid syndrome of pregnancy)is a catastrophic condition that occurs during pregnancy or shortly after delivery. It is found throughout the world in developed and undeveloped countries and occurs at an incidence of between 1 in 80000 live births. In the United States, AFE occurs in 1 in 20000 to 80000
