Summary

Fetal inflammatory response syndrome (FIRS) is a major cause of non-hypoxic fetal intrapartum injury. One of the most common determinants of FIRS during labor is the exposure to an ongoing intra-amniotic infectious agent as in the event of a chorioamnionitis. Interleuchine-6 (IL-6) is considered a reliable hallmark of FIRS. No specific fetal heart rate pattern for the diagnosis of FIRS have been described so far at intrapartum Cardiotocography (CTG). The aim the present study is to investigate the correlation between intrapartum CTG findings and IL-6 levels on the arterial cord.
