Cord blood nucleated red blood cell count - a marker of fetal asphyxia
Objectives : To study the cord blood nucleated RBC count (NRBC) in asphyxiated and nonasphyxiated fetuses at birth and to find out the correlation between NRBC count, fetal acidosis and the clinical markers of asphyxia. Methods : This is a prospective comparative study conducted between 2002 and 2004. Parturient women who were in labor between 37 and 42 weeks of gestation were selected after sa...
متن کاملNucleated Red Blood Cells as a Marker of Acute and Chronic Fetal Hypoxia in a Rat Model
OBJECTIVE To examine the relationship between duration of fetal hypoxia, nucleated red blood cell (NRBC) count, and fetal growth. METHODS Pregnant rats were exposed to a severe hypoxia (9.5%-10% O2) for varying time intervals (2, 6, 12, 24, 48, and 120 hours; n=4 for each time interval) immediately prior to delivery at term. Normoxic controls were exposed to room air (21% O2) and matched for ...
متن کاملEarly diagnosis of perinatal asphyxia by nucleated red blood cell count: a case-control study.
BACKGROUND Perinatal asphyxia is a major cause of neurologic morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study was to investigate variations in nucleated red blood cell (NRBC) count per 100 white blood cells (WBC) and absolute NRBC/mm3 in blood associated with perinatal asphyxia and its relationship to both the severity and short term prognosis of asphyxia. METHODS A prospective (case-contro...
متن کاملEvaluation of Efficacy of Nucleated Red Blood Cell Count as a Predictor of Perinatal Asphyxia in Karnataka, South India
Background: Early diagnosis of perinatal asphyxia is very essential since it is a major cause of neurologic morbidity and mortality. The present study was undertaken to investigate the association between nucleated red blood cells count (RBCs) per 100 white blood cells (WBCs) and perinatal asphyxia with respect to its severity and prognosis. Materials and Methods: A prospective case-control stu...
متن کاملThe Effects of Decreasing Maternal Anxiety on Fetal Oxygenation and Nucleated Red Blood Cells Count in the Cord Blood
OBJECTIVE Vasoconstriction during anxiety reduces fetal oxygenation and leads to hypoxia. Hypoxia in turn results in increase of the number of nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) in the cord blood. The present study aimed to assess the effect of decreasing maternal anxiety on fetal oxygenation and NRBCs count in the cord blood. METHODS . In this study, 150 women were randomly divided into two i...
