Intrapartum Cardiotocography
ISSN: 1447-0756
Popis: AIM: To evaluate the cardiotocography (CTG) features observed in suspected intrapartum chorioamnionitis in term fetuses according to the recently suggested criteria for the pathophysiological interpretation of the fetal heart rate and their correlation with perinatal outcomes. METHODS: Retrospective analysis of nonconsecutive CTG traces. 'CTG chorioamnionitis' was diagnosed either based on a persistent rise in the baseline for the given gestation or on a persistent increase in the baseline fetal heart rate during labor >10% without preceding CTG signs of hypoxia and in the absence of maternal pyrexia. Perinatal outcomes were compared among cases with no sign of chorioamnionitis, in those with only CTG features suspicious for chorioamnionitis and in those who developed clinical chorioamnionitis. RESULTS: Two thousand one hundred and five CTG traces were analyzed. Of these, 356 fulfilled the criteria for "CTG chorioamnionitis". Higher rates of Apgar
