Background: The cause of meconium passage in utero is controversial, traditionally being considered evidence of fetal stress and hypoxia, and also associated with intra-amniotic inflammation/infection. It is now recognized to also occur in the absence of fetal stress. Autopsy studies have
In a series of 12,587 deliveries in patients of low socio-economic class, there were 356 stillbirths; prospective analysis of these showed that 42.1% occurred in the 4.7% of cases in which the mother had received no antenatal care. When booked and unbooked patients were compared it was found that
Stillbirth occurs in approximately 1% of all pregnancies and, therefore, unfortunately, is an experience that most physicians caring for pregnant women will face in their professional careers. Because stillbirth is such an unpleasant and traumatic experience, a detailed evaluation is often deferred.
The incidence of stillbirths in "one year period" was studied by record analysis in a teaching hospital. A stillbirth rate of 38.4 per 1000 live births was observed. On admission 96.3% cases had some adverse foetal conditions detected readily. Leading factor detected was intra-uterine growth
This review examines the variation in clinical practice with regards to ultrasound estimation of fetal weight, as well as calculation of fetal weight centiles.Placental dysfunction is associated with fetal smallness from intrauterine malnutrition as well as All forms of diabetes during pregnancy are associated with an increased risk for stillbirth, defined as fetal death at greater than 20 weeks. The incidence of stillbirth in women who have diabetes has decreased dramatically with improved diabetes care. Diabetic-associated stillbirth is associated
An analysis of 765 consecutive stillbirths associated with 98,927 pregnancies during a 6-year interval showed significant differences for cause of death at specific weight categories. In addition, 57% of stillbirths occurred at infant weights of greater than or equal to 1500 gm. Hypoxia accounted
Objective The aims of this study were to ascertain the frequency of disorders of villous maturation in fetal death and to also delineate other placental histopathologic lesions in fetal death. Methods This was a retrospective observational cohort study of fetal deaths occurring among women between
An analysis of 287 consecutive stillbirths associated with 47,171 deliveries in Toa Payoh Hospital between 1978 and 1987 was undertaken. The incidence of stillbirths was 6.1 +/- 1.26 per 1,000 total births. 149 out of 287 cases (51.9%) had known causes of death. Intrauterine anoxia and congenital
The paper analyzes the 2010 Russian State Statistics Service data on stillbirth rates in the Russian Federation and its subjects. There was a steady decline in the mean stillbirth rate (from 6.8 to 4.67 per thousand) in the Russian Federation in 2000-2010. In 2010, the rate was low in 10 (12%)
