Blood rheology during normal pregnancy [PDF]

open access: possibleClinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation, 2018
INTRODUCTION: Recent studies have shown increased RBC aggregation and no difference in plasma viscosity in the presence of markedly lower hematocrit in women at term compared to non-pregnant women. Little is known about the outcome of blood rheological parameters and red blood cell (RBC) deformability particularly in the course of normal pregnancy ...

Platelet Count During Normal Pregnancy

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1982
Summary: Platelet counts were performed on 1,020 normal patients at different stages of pregnancy. Patients with complications of pregnancy known to influence the platelet count were excluded from the study. There was no evidence of any significant change in platelet count during pregnancy.

Oxidative stress and normal pregnancy

Clinical Endocrinology, 2002
Summaryobjective To determine whether, in normal pregnancies, there is evidence of oxidative stress that is related to the lipid changes observed in pregnancy.design Longitudinal study of healthy women having a normal pregnancy. Samples were obtained towards the end of each trimester and after 8 weeks postpartum.patients Seventeen healthy women during ...

Tolbutamide Response in Normal Pregnancy

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1965
Intravenous tolbutamide was administered to 12 normal patients during the last month of pregnancy and again post partum. Blood glucose and plasma insulin were measured before and after the stimulus. It was shown that tolbutamide causes the pancreas to release insulin during pregnancy and also that the pancreas is hyperfunctioning during pregnancy.

Physiology of normal pregnancy

Critical Care Clinics, 2004
The pregnant patient in the intensive care unit (ICU) poses many challenges. Physicians and nurses need to understand the basic concepts of maternal physiology and fetal physiology. The physicians must care for the mother and consider the potential adverse effects that diagnostic and therapeutic interventions might have on the fetus.

Umbilical velocimetry in normal pregnancy

International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 1990
AbstractFive hundred ninety‐six normal pregnancies were evaluated with continuous Doppler to determine the changes in velocimetry between 17 and 42 weeks gestation. The waveform was identified by its characteristic sharp systolic rise and slow diastolic decay; plotting the S/D ratio as a function of the gestational age reveals a progressive decline in ...

Albumin Metabolism in Normal Pregnancy

Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation, 1968
Albumin metabolism was studied in 19 normally pregnant women and 11 healthy, non-pregnant women.In pregnancy plasma volume was significantly higher, serum albumin concentration significantly lower than in controls. The intravascular mass of albumin was normal.The fractional catabolic rate and the rate of synthesis were not different from those of ...

Fibrinopeptide a During Normal Pregnancy

American Journal of Perinatology, 1988
Fibrinopeptide A (FPA) is the first peptide released from fibrinogen upon thrombin action. Plasma FPA is cleared rapidly with a first order kinetics and therefore its level reflects the rate of thrombin cleavage of fibrinogen. A prospective study was undertaken to establish normal values of FPA during pregnancy. The mean FPA for the pregnant group (n =

Normal Early Pregnancy

1990
It is important to use consistent terms when describing the age of a conceptus. While gestational age in embryology is measured from the time of fertilization, the reference point in obstetrics is the start of the last normal menstrual period. Thus the duration of pregnancy is stated in terms of menstrual age and is measured in weeks.

SERUM OESTRIOL IN NORMAL PREGNANCY

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 1976
SummarySerial measurements of serum oestriol (E3) were made in 56 normal pregnancies from 10 to 40 weeks gestation using a radioreceptor assay. Several parameters of the assay and its intrapatient variability were examined. The mean curve for pregnancy E3 levels and limits of normal variation have been identified and compared with those of other series.
