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

Abstract Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) is a rare but serious and potentially deadly complication of pregnancy that is unpreventable and unpredictable. Most AFE events occur during labor; however, approximately one third happen during the immediate postpartum period.

A critical review of animal and human data leads to a reassessment of traditional concepts of amniotic fluid embolism. Left ventricular failure, rather than pulmonary hypertension, is the major hemodynamic derangement consistently seen in humans. The detection of squamous cells in the pulmonary artery blood of pregnant women is not pathognomonic for ...

Abstract Creatinine concentration in the amniotic fluid during the latter half of pregnancy was investigated by single determinations in 120 patients and serial determinations in 10 patients. Concentration of creatinine remained constant or increased very gradually up to approximately 34 weeks, at which point a more abrupt increase apparently took ...

To review the recent literature on amniotic fluid embolism and how it may influence the clinical management and further study of the condition. Morbidity and mortality from amniotic fluid embolism in the international context will be described, given the recent Confidential Enquiries into Maternal Deaths in the United Kingdom and other studies.

AFE, although rare, remains a significant cause of maternal mortality. Even with improvements in supportive care, the prognosis remains poor for mother and fetus. The guidelines presented may help the physician to recognize this condition when it occurs and give some direction for therapy.

Amniotic fluid embolism is the most unpredictable and catastrophic complication of pregnancy, accounting for 10% to 20% of maternal deaths. The pulmonary edema commonly seen in this syndrome is probably due primarily to alveolar capillary leakage and may be potentiated by high maternal extracellular volume, low colloid osmotic pressure, and, in some ...

The concentration of amylase in amniotic fluid during the last half of pregnancy was studied. Single determinations were done in 180 patients and serial determinations in 7 patients. The results have been correlated with gestational age and fetal weight.

The mysterious environment surrounding the fetus for much of his or her life is now being explored with increasing fervor. Assessment of amniotic fluid in the early portion of pregnancy is now possible for fetal karyotype determination. This may permit early diagnosis of abnormal fetuses, increasing the options for patients.
