[Effect of aminophylline on frequency of blood flow in utero-placental and fetal circulation, on arterial blood pressure and on cardiotocography].

Aminophylline was given (125 mg i.v.) in 24 cases with fetal hypotrophy. Blood flow was measured (Doppler technique) before aminophylline injection, 30 min. and 3-4 hours after. Blood pressure was monitored continuously, CTG was performed many times before and after administration of aminophylline. After administration of aminophylline diastolic blood pressure decreased during 3-4 hours and blood flow in the arcuate artery increased. There were no changes in the blood flow in the umbilical artery and fetal aorta after administration of aminophylline. We didn't observe any changes in CTG before and after administration of aminophylline.

Clinical experience in nonstressed antepartum cardiotocography.

The condition of the fetus during pregnancy was assessed by 1,763 antepartum cardiotocograms made in 386 patients with the use of fetal movements and physiologic uterine contractions. There appeared to be a significant correlation between the cardiotocograms and the obstetric outcome.

Quality of survival of infants with critical fetal reserve detected by antenatal cardiotocography.

During the 8-year period 1973 to 1980, antenatal cardiotocographic monitoring was performed on 3,006 high-risk pregnancies selected from a total obstetric population of 37,856 patients. A critical fetal reserve was detected in 72 patients (2.3%) whose pregnancies resulted in 20 perinatal deaths and 52 infants who survived the neonatal period; 45 of these infants have been assessed at ages ranging from 2 months to 8 years, 9 months. Growth was below the tenth percentile in 25.0% for weight, 23.3% for length, and 22.5% for head circumference at the review examination. Neurological abnormalities were detected in 12 infants but the abnormality was major in only four, including one who has familial interstitial polyneuropathy. The quality of survival of infants delivered of pregnancies complicated by critical fetal reserve is satisfactory; 93.2% had no neurological impairment likely to interfere with quality of life and indeed 13.5% had superior intelligence. Cardiotocographic evidence of critical fetal reserve does not signify that the fetus is doomed; delivery by cesarean section is indicated if the fetus is viable and has no ultrasonic evidence of untreatable major malformation.

The value of an auditory stimulatory test in antenatal fetal cardiotocography.

One hundred auditory stimulatory antenatal fetal cardiotocographic tests were compared to standard non-stress tests in patients with pregnancy hypertension. The incidence of equivocal tests was significantly reduced. The A.S.T. is a simple and reliable test for assessing fetal heart reactivity in hypertensive pregnancy.
