Hemostatic variables in patients with intrauterine fetal death.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the occurrence of hemostatic disturbances in patients with intrauterine fetal death (IFD). METHOD: The occurrence of abnormal results of hemostatic variables and of bleeding complications was noted from the medical records of 41 patients with IFD, 6 of whom had a multiple pregnancy. RESULT: Apart from the increased platelet count, results of blood coagulation tests in all except one patient with IFD did not differ from normal values. This patient, who had a twin pregnancy with one dead fetus, had an increase in fibrin degradation products and fibrin monomers 4 weeks after IFD and fibrinogenopenia and thrombocytopenia 2 weeks later. CONCLUSION: The deterioration of systemic hemostasis in women with IFD is rare and only occurs after 4 weeks of dead fetus retention; the main signs of this deterioration are fibrinogenopenia and thrombocytopenia.

The nursing process: a tool for healing the environment.

Assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation can be useful in addressing environmental issues. "Eco-teams" can develop comprehensive waste management programs through implementing a "reduce, reuse, recycle, buy recycled" approach. Serious commitment to such behavior can result in significant savings while reducing dramatically the resources, energy and pollution associated with manufacture and disposal of many items commonly used in healthcare settings.
