Sequelae of chorioamnionitis

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2002
Chorioamnionitis correlates to preterm delivery prior to 30 weeks of gestation. In most studies, proxies of intrauterine infection (clinical chorioamnionitis, histological chorioamnionitis, intra-amniotic increase in cytokines) are associated with acute neonatal morbidity and mortality and, at least to some degree, with neurological impairments ...

Chorioamnionitis: from pathogenesis to treatment

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2011
Chorioamnionitis refers to inflammation of the amniochorionic membrane, and is a significant cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity. Chorioamnionitis most often occurs as a result of ascending infection, and is commonly associated with premature ...

Chorioamnionitis

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 1986
Chorioamnionitis is both a clinical and a histopathologic diagnosis. The latter may be clinically silent, but it commonly accompanies reproductive casualty and premature birth. Satisfactory delineation of its pathogenesis is elusive. Detailed histologic study indicates that endometrial inflammation usually precedes that of the membranes.

Cytokine production in chorioamnionitis

Journal of Reproductive Immunology, 2000
Lymphohematopoietic cytokines play a significant role in many biological mechanisms including a number of reproductive processes such as ovulation, implantation, placentation, cervical dilation and parturition. Recent experiments have suggested that cytokines play a crucial role in the mechanisms of preterm labor and delivery, which are the leading ...

Chorioamnionitis and Uterine Function

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2000
To clarify the relationships between intrapartum chorioamnionitis and abnormalities of uterine function, including labor abnormalities, cesarean delivery, and hemorrhage during parturition.We did a retrospective cohort study on 16,226 deliveries between 1986 and 1996 that were identified from the University of California, San Francisco Perinatal ...

A Case–Control Study of Chorioamnionic Infection and Histologic Chorioamnionitis in Prematurity

New England Journal of Medicine, 1988
To study the role of infection in prematurity, we studied the demographic and obstetrical characteristics, chorioamnionic cultures, and placental histologic features of women who delivered prematurely and compared these findings with those in women who delivered at term.

Management of acute chorioamnionitis

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1980
Acute chorioamnionitis has been recognized as a major threat to both mother and fetus, but there has been little study of its therapy. On this service, the plan of management consists of parenteral, broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy and prompt action to effect delivery.

Chorioamnionitis: A harbinger of dystocia

International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 1993
The impact of chorioamnionitis on the course of labor is controversial. Some clinicians believe the infection has stimulatory effects, whereas others suspect inhibitory influences. Two hundred sixty-six pregnancies with chorioamnionitis requiring labor stimulation with oxytocin were matched to uninfected women for maternal age, race, parity ...

Chorioamnionitis and brain injury

Clinics in Perinatology, 2002
The limited available evidence supports a strong association of chorioamnionitis with neonatal encephalopathy and CP in the term infant. The association of chorioamnionitis with depressed Apgar scores or neonatal seizures and with CP is equivocal in the preterm infant.
