Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To determine that fetal and neonatal prognosis progressively worsens with decreasing amniotic fluid index (AFI) value. STUDY DESIGN: Two hundred eighty-five postdate pregnancies with reliable dates underwent ultrasound assessment of amniotic fluid volume and correlated with perinatal outcome. RESULTS: In postdate pregnancies >42 weeks, the mean values of AFI were 12.9+64 cm. Oligohydramnios defined as an AFI <5.0 cm is associated with increased incidence of caesarean section for fetal distress and meconium staining. Furthermore, neonatal outcome was significantly poorer in patients with AFI < 5 cm than those with higher AFI values. CONCLUSION: In this study, it was suggested, that API estimation was an effective method in predicting fetal distress in postterm pregnancies.
Özet
Güvenilir son adet tarihli 285 postmatür gebenin amniotik sıvı volümü ultrasonik olarak değerlendirildi, ve perinatal sonuçlar ile karşılaştırıldı. Kırkiki haftanın üstünde postmatür gebelerde, ortalama amniotik sıvı indeksi (AFİ) 12.9+64 cmbulundu. AFI 5 cm olanlarla karşılaştırıldığı zaman, belirgin olarak daha kötüydü. Bu çalışmada postterm gebelerde fetal distresin belirlenmesinde, AFl'in değerlendirilmesinin etkin bir metod olduğu gösterildi.
