RADIAL AMNIOTIC FLUID INDEX AS A NEW AND ACCURATE METHOD FOR MEASURMENT OF AMNIOTIC FLUID VOLUME [PDF]

Acta Medica Iranica, 2006
Amniotic fluid volume (AFV) is one of the important parameters in the assessment of fetal well-being. The ability of ultrasound measurements to represent the actual AFV is unproven.

Quantificação do líquido amniótico pela ultra-sonografia tridimensional e bidimensional no primeiro trimestre da gestação Quantitation of amniotic fluid by three- and two-dimensional ultrasonography during the first trimester of pregnancy

Revista Brasileira de Ginecologia e Obstetrícia, 2006
OBJETIVO: quantificar os valores do líquido amniótico no primeiro trimestre da gestação, em fetos normais, por meio de ultra-sonografia tridimensional e bidimensional. MÉTODOS: foram avaliados 25 fetos normais, da 8ª à 11ª semana de gestação.

Prevalence and associated factors of oligohydramnios in pregnancies beyond 36 weeks of gestation at a tertiary hospital in southwestern Uganda

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2022
Background Oligohydramnios is associated with poor maternal and perinatal outcomes. In low-resource countries, including Uganda, oligohydramnios is under-detected due to the scarcity of ultrasonographic services.

The Effects of Intravenous Hydration on Amniotic Fluid Volume and Pregnancy Outcomes in Women with Term Pregnancy and Oligohydramnios: A Randomized Clinical Trial [PDF]

Journal of Caring Sciences, 2012
Introduction: Amniotic fluid is an important factor in the prediction of fetal survival. The aim of this research was to evaluate the effects of intravenous hydration of mothers on amniotic fluid volume and in turn on pregnancy outcomes.

Comparison between the single deepest pocket and amniotic fluid index in predicting fetal distress in small‐for‐gestational age fetuses

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1997
Background. The relationship between reduced amniotic fluid volume and increased risk of fetal distress in small‐for‐gestational age fetuses is not yet clear. Furthermore, the criteria used for the diagnosis of ‘oligohydramnios’ are different between the

Maternal hydration for increasing amniotic fluid volume in oligohydramnios and normal amniotic fluid volume

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2002
Oligohydramnios (reduced amniotic fluid) may be responsible for malpresentation problems, umbilical cord compression, concentration of meconium in the liquor, and difficult or failed external cephalic version. Simple maternal hydration has been suggested as a way of increasing amniotic fluid volume in order to reduce some of these problems.The ...

Postnatal serum creatinine is elevated in preterm infants with PPROM-induced anhydramnios

Pediatrics and Neonatology, 2020
Background: The reason for increased serum creatinine levels in preterm infants often remains unclear. We aimed to determine whether postnatal serum creatinine in preterm infants correlates with intake of amniotic fluid, represented by the amount of ...

Amniotic fluid deficiency and congenital abnormalities both influence fluctuating asymmetry in developing limbs of human deceased fetuses. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Fluctuating asymmetry (FA), as an indirect measure of developmental instability (DI), has been intensively studied for associations with stress and fitness. Patterns, however, appear heterogeneous and the underlying causes remain largely unknown.

Amniotic fluid disorders and the effects on prenatal outcome: a retrospective cohort study

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2021
Background The amniotic fluid is a protective liquid present in the amniotic sac. Two types of amniotic fluid disorders have been identified. First refers to polyhydramnios, which is an immoderate volume of amniotic fluid with an Amniotic Fluid Index ...
