A comparative assessment of uteroplacental circulation in fetal distress syndrome

Аннотация

A retrospective assessment of systolic-diastolic ratio (S/D) of uterine, spiral and umbilical arteries was done in 78 pregnant women with various obstetrical and extragenital pathology. The studies were made in the third trimester of pregnancy on «Acuson 128 XP/IO» ultrasound system. The conclusion was made: systolic-diastolic ratio in both uterine arteries higher than 2.6 in 59% cases were accompanied with the evidence of fetal distress syndrome.

A retrospective assessment of systolic-diastolic ratio (S/D) of uterine, spiral and umbilical arteries was done in 78 pregnant women with various obstetrical and extragenital pathology. The studies were made in the third trimester of pregnancy on «Acuson 128 XP/IO» ultrasound system. The conclusion was made: systolic- diastolic ratio in both uterine arteries higher than 2.6 in 59% cases were accompanied with the evidence of fetal distress syndrome. The increase of systolic-diastolic ratio in spiral arteries more than 1.9 in 68% cases was seen with the signs of fetal distress syndrome. The increase of S/D ratio in umbilical arteries more than 3.0 were accompanied with the fetal distress syndrome in 78% of pregnancies. We conclude that complex study of utero-placental circulation could be useful tool for the diagnostics and prognosis of the fetal distress syndrome.
