Amniotic Fluid Index: Correlation with Amniotic Fluid Volume
American Journal of Perinatology, 1992We 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.

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 ...

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 ...

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

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.

Bacteriology of Amniotic Fluid
Gynecologic and Obstetric Investigation, 1980The incidence of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria in the amniotic fluid and the cervix of 101 healthy parturients, with intact membranes, was studied. Pharynx, urine and umbilical cord of the newborns were also examined for the same pathogens. Although positive cultures from the cervix were found in 41.58% of the cases, the contamination of the amniotic ...

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.

Amniotic fluid embolism is a rare occurrence, with no single pathognomonic clinical or laboratory finding. Diagnosis is based on clinical presentation and supportive laboratory values. We describe the case of a 17-year-old nulliparous woman at 27 weeks' gestation who had uterine bleeding, hematuria, hemoptysis, hypotension, dyspnea, and hypoxemia ...

Correlation of subjective assessment of amniotic fluid with amniotic fluid index
European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 1992We assessed the correlation between abnormal amniotic fluid volumes as defined by the two techniques of (1) subjective evaluation and (2) the amniotic fluid index. Ultrasound evaluation of amniotic fluid volume was conducted on 420 pregnant women with known gestational age greater than twenty weeks but less than 42 weeks.
