Fetal Hemoglobin in Neonatal Anemia

Pediatrics, 1991
To the Editor.— A recent paper in Pediatrics by Bard and Prosmanne1 described an elevation of fetal hemoglobin (Hb-F) production in infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and oxygen dependency. The authors described a novel approach to the evaluation of occult hypoxemia in infants, with potential application in a wide range of ...

Heart Rate Patterns in Fetal Anemia

Fetal Diagnosis and Therapy, 1988
Fetal heart rate (FHR) was monitored immediately before cordocentesis on 105 occasions in 49 red cell-isoimmunized patients at 27–37 weeks of gestation. The fetal hemoglobin concentration, oxygen tension and oxygen content were measured and the values related to the FHR patterns, which were classified as reactive, non-reactive, decelerative (isolated ...

Fetal Liver Transplantation in Aplastic Anemia

Acta Haematologica, 1979
Fetal liver transplantation was attempted in 7 patients with aplastic anemia. 4 of these patients showed a partial response as evidenced by decrease in blood transfusion requirements and increase in the peripheral blood counts and hematopoietic cells in the bone marrow.

Acute posttraumatic fetal anemia treated with fetal intravascular transfusion

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1992
Fetal trauma resulting in acute anemia after maternal blunt abdominal trauma is a rare but potentially lethal condition. We recently managed such a case with the use of fetal intravascular transfusion.

Myocardial performance index in fetal anemia

Prenatal Diagnosis, 2014
AbstractObjectiveThe objective of the study was to examine the correlation between fetal myocardial performance index (MPI) and hemoglobin (Hb) levels.MethodsIt is a prospective study involving singleton pregnancies at risk of fetal anemia as a result of maternal anti‐D alloimmune disease. Right and left ventricle (LV) MPIs were evaluated by ultrasound

Noninvasive Testing for Fetal Anemia

New England Journal of Medicine, 2000
Despite the introduction of anti-D immune globulin (Rh immunoglobulin) for the prevention of anti-D red-cell alloimmunization, hemolytic disease of the newborn continues to occur because of the lac...

Intrauterine fetal transfusions in the management of fetal anemia and fetal thrombocytopenia

Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2007
During the past 40 years, rhesus alloimmunization has gone from being one of the major causes of perinatal mortality to an almost eradicated disease. The unraveling of the pathophysiology, the development of reliable diagnostic tools, a very effective prophylaxis program, and for those (nowadays rare) cases slipping through the prevention system the ...

Congenital Midgut Volvulus Associated with Fetal Anemia

Fetal Diagnosis and Therapy, 2010
Congenital volvulus is a life-threatening condition, both for the fetus and for the newborn. A volvulus is a twist of small bowel loops or a proximal part of the colon around the mesenteric artery or its branches. The potential consequences of volvulus are ileus and necrosis of the intestinal wall. Prenatal diagnosis of midgut volvulus is difficult. It

Sickle Cell Anemia and Fetal Hemoglobin

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1994
Fetal hemoglobin, the predominant hemoglobin of the fetus, is good for sickle cell anemia. This hemoglobin inhibits the polymerization of sickle hemoglobin. Clinical studies have shown that at any level of fetal hemoglobin, the more that is present, the better off is the patient.

Experimental production of anemia in fetal lambs

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1968
An attempt has been made to produce an experimental model in the fetal lamb which would simulate the physicochemical and pathologic phenomena associated with the severe anemia and hydrops seen in severe human erythroblastosis. Profound anemia was obtained by repeated fetal phlebotomy.
