METHOD FOR DIAGNOSING THE CASES OF CHRONIC FETAL HYPOXIA Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: method involves carrying out cardiotocographic examination taking into account day rhythmostasis and following data analysis. Diagnostically significant cardiotocographic characteristics like basal rhythm, accelerations, acceleration durations, motor fetus activity and integral fetus state characteristic are determined. Non-conjugated estriol/progesterone coefficient is calculated with day rhythmostasis taken into account. Maternal and fetal blood circulation hemodynamic values synchronization coefficient is determined. Diagnostically significant characteristics values typical for fetus hypoxia are determined. When carrying out cardiotocographic examination, basal rhythm (strokes/min) is equal to 156±2.9 at 12 o'clock and 159±3.7 at 20 o'clock; accelerations (strokes/min) 3.0±0.2 at 12 o'clock and 2.2±0.3 at 20 o'clock; acceleration durations (s) 14.2±0.7 at 12 o'clock and 13.6±1.2 at 20 o'clock; motor fetus activity (during 10 min) 2.0±0.4 at 12 o'clock and 1.7±0.3 at 20 o'clock; integral fetus state characteristic 1.25±0.15 at 12 o'clock and 1.37±0.22 at 20 o'clock. When determining noncojugated estriol/progesterone coefficient: 0.57±0.05 at 8 o'clock and 0.67±0.06 at 20 o'clock. When determining maternal and fetal blood circulation hemodynamic values synchronization coefficient: 2.35±0.19 before 37 pregnancy weeks date and 2.78±0.18 after 37 pregnancy weeks date. The values corresponding to the above referenced ones, functional fetus state change and chronic fetal hypoxia are to be diagnosed.

EFFECT: high accuracy of diagnosis.
