Abstract

Relationship of umbilical cord coiling index with cord length, nuchal cord and fetal weigthThe umbilical cord is an important structure for the fetus at the intrauterine period. The cord can be affected by compressions, anatomic form (coil form), traction and torsion which may have a negative impact on perinatal outcome. In this study, the umbilical coiling index (UCI) and complete coils per centimeter length were calculated. UCI's possible correlations between total cord length, the presence of nuchal cord and fetal birth weight were analyzed. Umbilical cords of 95 patients were studied in the study design. The patients were divided into three subgroups, which were named as less, normal and excess according complete coils per centimeter length. There were significant correlations between the UCI and the presence of nuchal cord, and no significant correlations between the total cord length and the fetal birth weight, were observed. Today, there are not enough scientific datas and researches about umbilical cord helix structure and its' impact on the fetomaternal outcomes. This study should be done in larger series.

Özet

Umbilikal kord, intrauterin dönemde fetus için çok önemli bir yapı olup; kompresyon, anatomik form (sarmal form), traksiyon ve torsiyon gibi durumlarda etkilenerek, perinatal sonuçlar üzerine olumsuz etkiler oluşturabilir. Bu çalışmada umbilikal kordondaki santimetre başına düşen sarmal sayısı ve umbilikal sarmal indeksi (UCI) hesaplandı. Umbilikal sarmal indeksinin, kordon uzunluğu, nukal kord varlığı ve yenidoğan doğum ağırlığı ile ilişkisi analiz edildi. Çalışma dizaynın da 95 hastaya ait umbilikal kordlar çalışıldı. Üç alt gruba ayrılan hastalar, sarmal sayısına göre az, normal veya fazla olarak isimlendirildi. Nukal kordon varlığı ile umbilikal kord indeksi arasında anlamlı ilişki saptandı, ancak kordon uzunluğu ve fetal doğum ağırlığı ile ilişki saptanmadı. Günümüzde, umbilikal kord sarmal yapısı ve bunun fetomaternal sonuçlara olan etkisi hakkında yeterli bilimsel veri ve çalışma yoktur. Bu konuda daha geniş serilerde araştırma yapılmalıdır.
