  1. 1. Birth asphyxia : Fetal scalp blood sampling and risk factors for hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy

    Författare :Lena Liljeström; Maria Jonsson; Anna-Karin Wikström; Ulf Högberg; Andreas Herbst; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :asphyxia; fetal scalp blood sampling; hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy; obstetric emergencies; operative deliveries for fetal distress; overweight; short stature; Obstetrik och gynekologi; Obstetrics and Gynaecology;

    Sammanfattning : Preventing birth asphyxia is a major challenge in delivery care. The aims of this thesis were to evaluate fetal scalp blood sampling (FBS) and explore risk factors for moderate to severe neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). LÄS MER

  2. 2. Surviving Birth and Thriving : Identifying infants at risk of death and disability in low- and middle-income countries

    Författare :Antti Kukka; Ashish KC; Helena Litorp; Nick Brown; Thorkild Tylleskär; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; pediatrics; neonatology; physiology; neonatal encephalopathy; hypoxia-ischemia; heart rate; neonatal resuscitation; neonatal follow-up; disabiltiy; cerebral palsy; general movements assessment; global health; low- and middle-income countries; pilot projects; telemedicine; qualitative research; Pediatrik; Pediatrics;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Ending preventable newborn deaths is an unfinished global health agenda. Infants surviving birth have a right to thrive and to reach their full developmental potential. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Perinatal brain injury - markers and mediators. Non-protein-bound iron and pro-inflammatory cytokines in newborn infants and neonatal pigs

    Författare :Karin Sävman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Asphyxia; hypoxia; posthemorrhagic ventricular dilatation; preterm; newborn; perinatal; brain; cerebrospinal fluid; cytokines; IL-1ß; IL-6; IL-8; TNF-a; non-protein-bound-iron;

    Sammanfattning : Two groups of newborn infants have an increased risk for perinatal brain injury; preterm infants and term infants subjected to birth asphyxia. Experimental studies indicate that hypoxic-ischemic insults in the perinatal period initiate a secondary neurotoxic cascade including formation of toxic reactive oxygen species as well as an inflammatory response with elevated levels of potentially neurotoxic cytokines.

  4. 4. Neonatal resuscitation - studies in piglets

    Författare :Rikard Linnér; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Newborn resuscitation; birth asphyxia; cerebral oxygenation; adrenaline; noradrenaline; severe hypoventilation; surfactant; nebulisation; vibrating mesh nebuliser. CPAP; lung deposition; lung distribution.;

    Sammanfattning : Background and aims: “It’s best to start with air” states the current guidelines on the resuscitation of babies at birth. In a piglet model mimicking severe neonatal asphyxia and circulatory arrest, different aspects of resuscitation were investigated (studies I-III). LÄS MER

  5. 5. Fetal reactivity assessment during intrapartum stress by analysis of the fetal ECG signal

    Författare :Sofia Blad; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :FHR variability; fetal ECG; Asphyxia; Intrauterine infection; Residual method; STAN;

    Sammanfattning : Fetal responses to the stress of labour and delivery are constituted by a combination of changes in neuronal, hormonal and organ based reactions. The aim of electronic fetal monitoring is to identify fetuses at risk of hypoxia during birth, thus enabling timely intervention to avoid an adverse outcome. LÄS MER
