RESUMO
With the purpose of know the behaviour of the thromboplastic acceleration time in amniotic fluid, there were analized 390 amniotic fluids, 241 from normal pregnancies and 149 from abnormal pregnancies, of these, 52 from diabetic women, and 97 from hypertensive women. It was found an important increase in T.A.T. with the progress of pregnancy and their usefulness as fetal lung maturity test. It was concluded, that this method is easy, cheap, and highly specific, so it can be the first election test for determination of fetal lung maturity in low resources Obstetric Centers.

PIP: 2635 prenatal cardiotocographic recordings were correlated with perinatal mortality in 1000 patients. In some cases, there were extenuating circumstances which, when combined with obstetrical intervention, resulted in an increase in mortality. These included congenital malformations, poor maternal conditions for surgery, a hypertensive crisis, and a delay in surgery. The correlated perinatal mortality was 9x1000. (author's modified)^ieng
