Abstract

BACKGROUND: To determine the major predictive factors for fetal acidemia in placental abruption. METHODS: A retrospective review of pregnancies with placental abruption was performed using a logistic regression model. Fetal acidemia was defined as a pH of less than 7.0 in umbilical artery. The severe abruption score, which was derived from a linear discriminant function, was calculated to determine the probability of fetal acidemia. RESULTS: Fetal acidemia was seen in 43 survivors (43/222, 19%). A logistic regression model showed bradycardia (OR (odds ratio) 50.34, 95% CI 11.07-228.93), and late decelerations (OR 15.13, 3.05-74.97), but not abnormal ultrasonographic findings were to be associated with the occurrence of fetal acidemia. The severe abruption score was calculated for the occurrence of fetal acidemia, using 6 items including vaginal bleeding, gestational age, abdominal pain, abnormal ultrasonographic finding, late decelerations, and bradycardia. CONCLUSIONS: An abnormal FHR pattern, especially bradycardia is the most significant risk factor in placental abruption predicting fetal acidemia, regardless of the presence of abnormal ultrasonographic findings or gestational age.

  • In a retrospective cohort study of 355 patients who had clinical abruption in 2009 and delivered in a consortium of 94 centers in Japan, after excluding 89 fetal deaths on presentation, 166 (62.4%) fetal heart rate tracings were abnormal.

    “In a retrospective cohort study of 355 patients who had clinical abruption in 2009 and delivered in a consortium of 94 centers in Japan, and after excluding 89 fetal deaths on presentation, 166 (62.4%) FHR tracings were abnormal (72).”

    The Results report 355 placental-abruption cases across 94 institutes, 89 fetal deaths on admission, and abnormal FHR patterns in 166 of the 266 remaining cases (62.4%). However, the Methods describe a retrospective case–control study, not a cohort study, and note that some FHR patterns were detected by Doppler or auscultation rather than tracings. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
