Measurement of the amniotic fluid index with and without Color Doppler
Journal of Perinatal Medicine, 1999The 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 ...

Validity of amniotic fluid index in preterm rupture of membranes
Journal of Perinatal Medicine, 2007Preterm premature rupture of membranes (pPROM) complicates up to one-third of preterm deliveries. We studied the Amniotic Fluid Index (AFI) in order to ascertain its validity as a predictive variable of maternal-fetal outcome in pregnancies complicated by pPROM.One hundred and fourteen pregnant women with gestational age between 24 and 34 weeks ...

Alpha fetoprotein in amniotic fluid: An index of gestational age
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1972Abstract 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, 2004Objective. 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, 1993To 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, 1994The 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 ...
