چکیده

introduction: it is well know that fetal distress is one of the important causes of fetus perinatal morbidity and mortality. in this study, we sought to evaluate the association between umbilical coiling index and fetal distress.material and method:this was a case- control study conducted on 90 term pregnant women. study group had fetal distress (abnormal fetal heart rate, meconium staining, apgar score less than 7 in fifth minute and ph of umbilical cord arterials < 7.2) and control group did not have above complications. after fetus birth, umbilical coiling index (uci) was calculated and heparinated blood of umbilical cord arteries was sent to laboratory for checking acidity. finally, data was analyzed using spss software, version 18 by t-test and pearson correlation test.results: the mean uci was 0.23 ±0.13coils/cm and 0.30± 0.13coils/cm in study and control groups, respectively which had meaningful difference (p=0.017). however, there was a significant correlation (p=0.03) between uci and bradycardia, but there was no significant association between uci and meconium staining, tachycardia and acidity of umbilical cord arterials (p>0.05). roc curve demonstrated that uci had the ability to be used to predict fetal distress and the best point for predicting fetal distress was 0.23 coils/cm conclusion:fetal heart bradycardia had significant association with uci and uci could be used to predict fetal distress.

The umbilical coiling index and adverse perinatal outcome.

OBJECTIVE Evaluation of the relationship between umbilical coiling index (UCI) and adverse perinatal outcome. METHOD A prospective study was performed on 699 pregnant women who were 37-40 weeks. UCI was determined by dividing the total number of the complete vascular coiling by the total umbilical cord length in centimeters. Then the relationship between UCI and neonatal weight, amniotic flui...

Umbilical Cord Segmental Hemorrhage and Fetal Distress

We describe an unexplained case of umbilical cord segmental hemorrhage linked with meconium-stained amniotic fluid. A severely asphyxiated infant was delivered at term by Caesarean section. There were poor prognostic signs on fetal cardiotocography with rupture of membranes with meconium-stained amniotic fluid. The pathophysiologic mechanism in this case is still unknown, even if we argued a po...
