The effect of placental isolation on umbilical artery blood gas measurements.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:We conducted a study to determine whether the pH and base excess of umbilical artery blood samples are significantly different when taken from a double-clamped segment of umbilical cord as compared with a nonisolated segment of umbilical cord. STUDY DESIGN:A prospective study with 43 singleton pregnancies was conducted. Matched pair samples of umbilical arterial blood were compared from double-clamped and nonisolated segments. The means for pH and base excess were compared and a paired t test was used to determine significance. RESULT:The means for pH and base excess were not significantly different (P = .70) between the 2 groups. CONCLUSION:Double clamping the umbilical cord before obtaining an umbilical artery sample is not necessary for accurate blood gas results.
