Antepartum fetal testing. I. The oxytocin challenge test.

Abstract:

:Two hundred seventy-eight high-risk patients were managed by a comprehensive assessment of the anatomic, biochemical, and functional environment of the fetoplacental unit utilizing predetermined guidelines. Decisions to terminate pregnancy were reserved for patients who demonstrated a positive OCT. Perinatal outcome in patients with positive OCT's was significantly worse than in patients who did not have a positive OCT. Patients with suspicious OCT's frequently had positive OCT's and were more likely to bear growth-retarded infants, whereas negative OCT's in general were associated with a favorable outcome. Correlation of estriol excretion with the OCT and perinatal outcome was inconsistent. There were a total of four prenatal deaths, all of which were considered unpreventable.

  • Developmental regulation of the expression of 72 and 92 kd type IV collagenases in human trophoblasts: a possible mechanism for control of trophoblast invasion.

However, unlike tumor invasion, trophoblast invasion of the uterus is under strict control. This control limits invasion, so that it primarily remains...
