NCT01385267 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 50

Last updated 2018-12-28

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Objectives:

To evaluate discordance in lung maturity in diamniotic twins based on birth order, sex and body weight. If we find discordance in fetal lung maturity in twin gestations this will change current practice of sampling only one amniotic sac for evaluation of fetal lung maturity.

Conditions

  • Discordance in Lung Maturity in Diamniotic Twins

Interventions

PROCEDURE

aspiration of amniotic fluid

a sample of amniotic fluid will be drawn from the amniotic sac of Twin A and Twin B. Each amniotic sac will be aspirated by the obstetrician and sent to the laboratory for determination of fetal lung maturity index and lamellar body count.
