Comparison Between Amniotic Fluid Lamellar Body Count and Fetal Pulmonary Artery Doppler Indices in Predicting Fetal Lung Maturity

NCT02331199 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: PHASE3 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 200

Last updated 2017-01-23

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators will study 200 women with singleton pregnancies presented with prelabor preterm rupture of membranes or undergoing cesarean section (CS). Amniotic fluid lamellar body count (LBC) and fetal pulmonary artery Doppler will be done to all women. LBC and fetal pulmonary artery Doppler will be correlated with fetal outcome

Conditions

  • Preterm Labour

Interventions

DEVICE

Amniotic fluid lamellar body count

The LBC (the unit of measurement is number of lamellar bodies counted per microliter of amniotic fluid) will be determined using the platelet channels on the Hematology Flow Cytometer.

DEVICE

Fetal pulmonary artery Doppler

A fetal pulmonary artery Doppler will be performed using color Doppler ultrasound. Doppler flow velocity measurements, including systolic/diastolic ratio, pulsatility index, resistance index, and acceleration-time/ejection-time ratio using spectral Doppler ultrasound.
