AIM OF THE STUDY: The aim of the study is to correlate intrapartum CTG findings with
umbilical cord pH in MSAF pregnancies and also to study its association with perinatal …

Of 323 pregnancies with meconium-stained amniotic fluid at 36-42 weeks' gestation, 68
(21%) had a pH less than 7.20 in umbilical arterial blood, 21 (7%) had a pH less than 7.15 …

Background: Evaluation of fetal wellbeing during labor is on the basis of fetal activity and
color of liquor in labor in vertex presentation. When there is meconium-stained liquor during …

The objective of this study was to explore details of the clinical relationship between
meconium-stained amniotic fluid (MSAF) in labour, abnormal fetal heart pattern and …

Although the significance of meconium in the amniotic fluid diagnosed during labor remains
problematic, there is little information regarding the significance of meconium discovered …

Continuous intrapartum fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring with external cardiotocograph, and
umbilical cord blood acid base analysis was done in 210 patients. One hundred cases who …

A prospective study was undertaken to determine if the passage of meconium during the
early intrapartum period (cervical dilatation 3 cm or less), the type of meconium passed …

The objective of this study was to determine the rate of pathological fetal acidemia in the
absence of fluid observed at amniotomy. Thirty-nine consecutive patients with no fluid …

Background: The presence of meconium-stained amniotic fluid is a sign of fetal compromise
and is associated with increased perinatal morbidity. The objective of this study was to …

Background: Meconium-stained amniotic fluid (MSAF) is often identified as the most
disconcerting sign of foetal distress, leading to an adverse foetal outcome. Aims: To …
