The study of perinatal outcome after transabdominal infusion of amniotic fluid / 中华围产医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the safety,efficiency and feasibility of increase the aminotic fluid volume by transabdominal amnioinfusion(AI). Methods Thirty-three patients were selected according to the following criteria oligohydramnios or borderline oligohydramnios found by B ultrasound ,indications of vaginal delivery and with cephalic presentation,and who is ready to receive AI. After located by puncture bougie,at most 380 ml saline solution at 37℃ were infused into the amniotic cavity. Results AI was accomplished in 32 of 33 cases (96.97%). Premature rupture of membrane occurred in one case (3 03%). No placental abruption and infection or other complications happened. Twety-five patients (75.76%)successed in vaginal delivery. Cesarean sections were performed in 8 cases (24 24%) because of encephalopelvic disproportion,cord prolapse and fetal distress. No neonatal asphyxia happened. Conclusion Amnioinfusion can effectively increase amniotic fluid volume,create favorable conditions of vaginal delivevy for oligohydramnios and decrease the incidence of cesarean section as well as improve perinatal outcome.
