OBJECTIVES The study was undertaken to evaluate maternal, perinatal outcomes following transcervical intrapartum amnioinfusion in women with meconium-stained amniotic fluid. METHODS A prospective comparative study was conducted on 100 women with meconium-stained amniotic fluid in labor. Group A: study group (50 cases) received amnioinfusion. Group B: control group (50 cases) did not receive a...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of intrapartum prophylactic amnioinfusion in pregnancies complicated by meconium-stained amniotic fluid. DATA SOURCES We identified prospective clinical trials of amnioinfusion in pregnancies complicated by meconium-stained amniotic fluid (AF) published in English by using computerized databases, references in published studies, and index reviews. MET...

Background: Since it is not always possible clinically and radiographically to predict the development of meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS) in infants born with meconium-stained amniotic fluid, there a need for biomarkers that may MAS these infants. Methods: The study was planned Ankara Zekai Tahir Burak Gynecology Hospital. Among term (>37 gestational weeks) from mothers who had Meconium-Stai...

Meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS) is a common problem that most pediatricians will encounter in the delivery room and normal newborn nursery. Approximately 13% of all live births are complicated by meconium stained amniotic fluid (MSAF). MAS is defined as respiratory distress in an infant born through MSAF whose symptoms cannot be otherwise explained. Optimal care for an infant born through MS...

Background: When the fetus is in a state of stress meconium passed presence amniotic fluid potentially serious Sign fatal compromise, frequency strained ranges from 5-22%. MSAF results higher rate cesarean delivery, NICU admission rate, respiratory distress, PPHN and neonatal death. The primary objectives study were to estimate incidence Meconium aspiration syndrome & Respiratory distress a...

OBJECTIVES This study aimed to find out the risk factors leading meconium aspiration syndrome in patients having meconium-stained amniotic fluid. METHODOLOGY comparative was conducted department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Hayatabad Medical Complex from January 2022- June 2022. All admitted labour ward with diagnosis liquor (MSL) were included through a convenient sampling technique. Patie...

The hemodynamic effects of periodic acceleration (pG(z)), induced in the spinal axis with noninvasive motion ventilation (NIMV), were studied in a piglet model of pulmonary hypertension associated with meconium aspiration. Animals (n = 12) were anesthetized, paralyzed, intubated, and supported by conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV). Thirty minutes after tracheal instillation of meconium s...

Eighteen children aged 6 to 11 years old who fulfilled criteria for the diagnosis of neonatal meconium aspiration syndrome were investigated to find out the prevalence of previous and current respiratory symptoms, and abnormal pulmonary function tests, chest radiographs, and ventilation scans. Eleven of the 18 had no respiratory symptoms and eight of these had normal pulmonary function on testi...
