The respiratory pathophysiology of placental insufficiency is well understood, whereas the metabolic effects of chronical or acute malnutrition still need further evaluation. In a comprehensive study of 20 deliveries respiratory parameters and substrates of carbohydrate- and lipid-metabolism were analysed simultaneously from maternal blood at 4 cm dilatation, at cord clamping immediately delivery and 2 hours post partum as well as from arterial and venous umbical blood samples. Normal deliveries were compared with cases of fetal retardation and moderate acute fetal acidosis. For glucose, insulin, c-peptide and pyruvate a strong rise in maternal blood during labour was observed as well as for the non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), which have a high materno-fetal gradient. Arterio-venous differences of concentrations were found in the umbilical cord blood for glucose, pyruvate and NEFA. In cases of chronical insufficiency of the placenta especially elevated lactate levels were measured, whereas a moderate fetal acidosis obviously leads to an additional feto-maternal pyruvate transfer. The results lead to the conclusion that the fetal metabolism has considerable means of adaptation during delivery even under chronical or moderate acute stress conditions. |
