    Sammanfattning : Abstract Background: Preterm delivery (PTD; < 37 gestational weeks), is one of the greatest unsolved obstetrical problems worldwide. As much as 80% of the perinatal mortality and 50% of the long-term neurological handicaps are associated with PTD. Spontaneous preterm birth (SPTD), i.e. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Maternal and placental inflammatory biomarkers in spontaneous preterm delivery - Predictive ability, stability and neonatal associations

    Författare :Panos Tsiartas; Göteborgs universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Preterm delivery (PTD), spontaneous or iatrogenic, causes short- and long-term morbidity and underlies almost 75% of neonatal deaths. The prevalence in the Nordic countries is about 6% but it differs among countries. In the USA, for instance, it is around 9.6%. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Continuous Intrapartum Maternal and Fetal Temperature Monitoring

    Författare :Tony Lavesson; Urogynekologi och reproduktionsfarmakologi; []
    Nyckelord :Maternal; fetal; temperature; fever; pyrexia; labor; uterine contractions; delivery; chorioamnionitis; epidural;

    Sammanfattning : The maternal temperature is normally increasing during delivery. Maternal fever in labor is a common problem.Such fever could represent a chorioamnionitis (CAM), leading to an increased risk of neonatal encephalopathy andsubsequent cerebral palsy, as well as other complications.

  7. 5. Intrauterine immunology in allergy and infection

    Författare :Erika Rindsjö; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Pregnancy is interesting from an immunological point of view. The maternal immune system has to tolerate the fetus and at the same time also protect against infection. The placenta is not a completely tight barrier: in fact, cells can pass through in both directions. LÄS MER
