    DOUBLE BLIND TRIAL OF RITODRINE AND PLACEBO IN TWIN PREGNANCY (1979)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    BJOG 86 (1979), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1471-0528
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: In a double blind trial, 25 patients with twin pregnancy were given 40 mg of ritodrine hydrochloride by mouth daily and 24 similar patients received a placebo. The ritodrine group had no significant prolongation of pregnancy nor increase in birth weight, and a high incidence of side effects occurred.

    RAISED HYPOXANTHINE, XANTHINE AND URIDINE CONCENTRATIONS IN MECONIUM STAINED AMNIOTIC FLUID AND DURING LABOUR (1981)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Notes: Amniotic fluid samples were obtained at induction of labour in 64 women; in 15 of these there was meconium staining of the amniotic fluid; the remainder showed no signs of fetal distress. Using high pressure liquid chromatography, compared to the samples from normal patients there were highly significantly raised levels of hypo-xanthine, xanthine and uridine in the meconium stained samples; oxypurines in the meconium itself could not explain the difference. Where serial samples were obtained during labour by intrauterine catheter, a terminal rise in oxypurine levels was apparent. Where the proportion of oxypurine present as hypoxanthine exceeded one per cent in amniotic fluid at the time of induction, there was a significantly greater occurrence of late fetal heart rate decelerations in the ensuing labour. These findings are consistent with other evidence that when tissues become hypoxic the metabolic products of nucleotide breakdown escape from the cells and appear in extracellular fluid. Oxygen lack in the fetus probably causes loss of these compounds from the hypoxic kidneys to the urine so that they appear in amniotic fluid.

    THE MEASUREMENT OF HYPOXANTHINE, XANTHINE, INOSINE AND URIDINE IN UMBILICAL CORD BLOOD AND FETAL SCALP BLOOD SAMPLES AS A MEASURE OF FETAL HYPOXIA (1981)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Details

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Hypoxanthine, xanthine, inosine, urate and uridine, were measured in 149 samples of umbilical cord plasma using high pressure liquid chromatography. In spite of a good correlation with the simpler oxygen consumption method for measuring hypoxanthine, there was no clear discrimination between hypoxic and well oxygenated infants, although mean concentrations were higher in infants with well defined criteria of intrapartum hypoxia or birth asphyxia, there was overlap with the normal range. Fetal scalp blood samples were also found to be clinically unhelpful in the diagnosis of intrapartum hypoxia, at least in part due to variable degrees of haemolysis in the specimens. There were poor correlations between hypoxanthine concentrations and those of hydrogen ion, base deficit and lactate. Uridine concentrations were significantly higher in arterial cord blood than in venous cord blood but hypoxanthine or xanthine concentrations did not show this difference.

    THE MERITS OF SPECIAL ANTENATAL CARE FOR TWIN PREGNANCIES (1981)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    BJOG 88 (1981), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1471-0528
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: A combined series of 101 twin pregnancies for whom routine hospital rest during the last trimester was replaced by intensified antenatal care in a special twins clinic was studied. Perinatal mortality and morbidity was similar to that found in a comparison group of 137 twin pregnancies under the care of consultants and not referred to the twins clinic. Routine cervical assessments and uterine activity measurements were unhelpful in predicting premature delivery. Urinary oestrogens and ultrasonic measurements of fetal biparietal diameter were of little or no value in predicting weight for gestational age but the ultrasonic measurement of abdominal circumference provided limited information on fetal growth. The contribution of a placebo effect to the results of patients receiving more personalised care cannot be discounted.

    MEASUREMENT OF FETAL TRANSCUTANEOUS OXYGEN TENSION-PROBLEMS AND POTENTTAL (1979)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Notes: In a series of 39 fetuses, continuous intrapartum transcutaneous PO2 recordings were made using a commercially available skin electrode, applied to the shaven fetal scalp. The weak correlation between transcutaneous measurements and umbilical blood PO2 at delivery is believed to be due to scalp ischaemia produced by ‘head to cervix’ pressure during labour. This ‘tonsure’ effect presents a major obstacle to the use of surface electrodes for intrapartum blood gas monitoring from the fetal scalp in clinical obstetrics. Modification of the current technique may allow it to be used reliably for research.
