Plasma and colostrum concentrations of fentanyl in clinical practice: Intravenous versus epidural administration for labor analgesia

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Midwife‐administered intravenous fentanyl may be considered a feasible option for labor analgesia. Abstract Introduction Pain relief during labor is essential. Systemic opioids for labor analgesia have been used for decades as a less invasive alternative to epidural analgesia (EA).

Gestational diabetes in multifetal versus singleton pregnancies: A multicenter cohort study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Gestational diabetes in multifetal pregnancies was associated with increased maternal morbidity but less adverse neonatal and long‐term offspring outcomes than in singleton pregnancies, suggesting that current diagnostic thresholds derived from singleton gestations may not fully reflect the unique metabolic and clinical characteristics of multifetal ...

Toward implementation of lactate compared with pH in fetal scalp blood sampling during labor: A clinical comparative single‐center study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Lactate and pH in fetal blood samples are moderately correlated (r = −0.53). For the StatStrip® Lactate 2, we propose a lactate cutoff value of ≥5.6 mmol/L based on the most optimal balance between sensitivity (78.1% [60.0–90.7%]) and specificity (79.2% [73.4–84.3%]).

The relationship between Apgar score and umbilical arterial blood gas values in newborns

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 1996
The data for this report were derived from 61 newborns and their mothers. Of the newborns 45.9 percent had one-minute Apgar scores of less than seven, and 54.1 percent had Apgar scores of seven or greater. The five-minute Apgar score was less than

Preparedness for maternal and offspring health surveillance in pandemics: Lessons learned from studies on COVID‐19 using Scandinavian registry data

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
The Scandinavian registries are unique resources that should be used in pandemics to understand risks to pregnant women and their developing fetuses. Abstract When the COVID‐19 pandemic emerged, pregnant women were quickly identified as a high‐risk group.

Strength training during pregnancy for the prevention of gestational diabetes: A randomized trial in women with overweight or obesity

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Strength training during pregnancy safely improves maternal well‐being, increases physical activity, and reduces pregnancy symptoms, with a promising trend toward lower gestational diabetes. Abstract Introduction Evidence suggests that physical exercise may help prevent gestational diabetes mellitus, although available clinical trials are limited by ...

Perinatal outcomes in a hospital from southern Brazil: Predictors of low APGAR in the first minute of birth

Clinical and Biomedical Research
Introduction: The Apgar Index (AI), is a method that assesses the physical conditions of the newborn (NB) in the period immediately after birth. The index proved to be a predictor of neonatal mortality in several clinical and population-based studies ...

Fetal heart rate patterns associated with acidemia at fetal blood sampling during labor—An observational study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
The Swedish fetal heart rate (FHR) classification from 2017 identifies most FHR patterns associated with fetal acidemia as non‐normal, according to fetal blood sampling (FBS) in immediate connection to the ongoing FHR pattern. However, long‐standing FHR patterns with non‐repetitive decelerations of the types severe variable and late warrant increased ...

Diagnostic performance and feasibility of classifying placental umbilical cord insertion during routine prenatal ultrasound

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Classification of placental umbilical cord insertion is feasible within the routine prenatal ultrasound examination, and reliably excludes abnormal insertion, although positive predictive values were low. Abstract Introduction Abnormal cord insertion (velamentous or marginal) is associated with adverse perinatal outcomes, and guidelines recommend ...
