  5. 24. Acidaemia at Birth: Risk factors, diagnosis and prognosis, with special reference to maternal fever in labour

    Författare :Andreas Herbst; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []

    Sammanfattning : Acidaemia at birth is a result of an impaired intrauterine gas exchange. Between 1988 and 1996, acid-base balance in cord artery blood pH was assessed in 23 016 of 27 064 newborns (85%). Obstetric risk factors for acidaemia (cord artery pH < 7.05) were identified in a case-control study. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Routine procedures in the care of the full-term newborn

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents four studies on routine procedures used in the care of the full-term newborn. The overall aim of the thesis was to study the effects of these routines and endeavour to find ways to improve them.Study I, an observational study, included 28 healthy newborns, assessing pain during neonatal hip examination.
