The Relationship Between Umbilical Cord ph and Feto-maternal Doppler Studies in Scheduled Nonlaboring Term Singleton Caesarean Deliveries

Start date: April 1, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Perinatal asphyxia is a crucial reason for neonatal and childhood morbidity and death. Fetal and neonatal acidemia can be utilised as predictors for establishing such risk. Several researches have reported a marked relation between low values of fetal pH with short- and long-term adverse neonatal outcomes. Umbilical cord blood gas studies (UCGS) are considered critical data that gives an objective and certified evaluation of the oxygenation and metabolic status of the fetus. Before birth, the physician can evaluate fetal wellness through cardiotocography and prenatal ultrasound. Other studies had examined the role of fetal Doppler indices before birth and proposed that fetuses with lower impedance in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) or low cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) are at increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcome. However, no research has ever evaluated the possibility of a correlation between ultrasonographic fetal evaluation and fetal umbilical cord pH as a predictor of pre-delivery fetal pH. The goal of our study was to discovered a potential association between the venous umbilical ph cord blood at delivery and the ultrasonographic feto-maternal doppler indices in patients with a scheduled nonlaboring term singleton caesarean deliveries (SCD), this research is a novel finding.
