Antenatal Clinic — the Most Important Element in Prevention of Fetal Hypoxia (Analysis of Literature and Own Researches)

Abstract

In modern conditions much attention is paid to prenatal (antepartum) diagnostics in antenatal clinics, on the activities of which the success of prevention of obstetric pathology, early diagnosis and treatment of pregnancy complications depends. Treatment and prevention work of antenatal clinics reduces the number of complications in childbirth, perinatal pathology and postnatal morbidity. The level of gynecological morbidity is largely depends on the quality of obstetric care. This paper deals with literature and own data of the authors on the problem of prevention of fetal hypoxia in antenatal clinics. We found differences in the results of researches. They, probavly, may be explained by a small number of observations, assessment of intracardiac blood flow in specific groups of fetuses with different degrees of severity of functional status disorders, the lack of a comprehensive study of intracardiac hemodynamics in general. All of the above dictates the need for research in this area.
