Oscillometric and intra-arterial blood pressure in preterm and term infants: extent of discrepancy and factors associated with inaccuracy.

abstract：:Discordancy in twins is generally described as a weight difference between the fetuses of 15 to 25% and its prevalence in normal twin gestations is estimated at 15 to 29%. The present study was performed in order to determine the frequency of discordant newborns in uncomplicated triplet gestations. One hundred and fou...
