Mathematical models to correlate amniotic fluid index and amniotic fluid volume.

Journal of the Mississippi State Medical Association, 1998
To describe a predictable relationship that relates amniotic fluid index (AFI) to amniotic fluid volume (AFV) and improve the accuracy of AFI to detect true oligohydramnios.Data from 42 parturients (group I) who underwent measurements of amniotic fluid sonographically (amniotic fluid index) as well as by dye-dilution technique was used to relate AFI to

Measurement of the amniotic fluid index with and without Color Doppler

Journal of Perinatal Medicine, 1999
The purpose of this study was to assess the effect, if any, of color Doppler on the measurement of the amniotic fluid index in term pregnancies. It is hypothesized that color Doppler may enhance the detection of oligohydramnios.The amniotic fluid index was performed with and without color Doppler on pregnancies greater than or equal to 36 weeks ...

Amniotic Fluid Index: An Appropriate Predictor of Perinatal Outcome

American Journal of Perinatology, 1990
Qualitative amniotic fluid volume determination is a routine part of the fetal biophysical profile score. Quantitative amniotic fluid volume measurement, however, is not a factor in the determination of the standard biophysical profile score.

AMNIOTIC FLUID CREATININE: AN UNRELIABLE INDEX OF FETAL MATURITY

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 1972
SummaryAmniotic fluid creatinine was measured in 306 samples. There was a wide scatter of values at each week of gestation, and although there was a tendency for the levels to rise with increasing gestational age the scatter was so wide and so much overlap occurred that the method must be regarded as unreliable for estimating maturity in clinical ...

Alpha fetoprotein in amniotic fluid: An index of gestational age

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1972
Abstract Alpha fetoprotein (AFP) was determined by radioimmunoassay in 65 amniotic fluid samples. During the second trimester, the AFP level in amniotic fluid varied from 2,800 to 26,000 nanograms per milliliter; and, during the third trimester, from 15 to 535 ng. per milliliter.

Association of Amniotic Fluid Index With Estimated Fetal Weight

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, 2004
Objective. The relationship between amniotic fluid volume and gestational age has been described previously. The association of body weight and urine output has been observed in human neonates. Our goal was to assess the correlation of the amniotic fluid index (AFI) with estimated fetal weight (EFW) in the third trimester. Methods.

Maternal hydration increases amniotic fluid index in women with normal amniotic fluid.

Obstetrics and gynecology, 1993
To test the hypothesis that maternal oral hydration would increase the amniotic fluid (AF) index in pregnancies with normal AF.Forty women with a normal AF index (7.0-24.0 cm) were randomized to either the control or hydration group. Women in the hydration group drank 2 L of water and returned for the post-treatment AF index in 4-6 hours, whereas women

Effect of altitude on the amniotic fluid index.

The Journal of reproductive medicine, 1994
The effect of altitude on amniotic fluid volume has not been studied previously. We sought to determine whether there is such an effect by measuring the amniotic fluid index (AFI) in pregnant women at low and high altitudes. We compared populations of pregnant women at two institutions, one located at low elevation (100 ft) and the other at relatively ...
