METHOD FOR PREDICTION OF POSTHYPOXIC CARDIOPATHY IN NEWBORNS DELIVERED BY MOTHERS SUFFERING CONGENITAL CARDIAC FAILURES Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC G01N33/50 G01N33/84 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: newborn's umbilical blood is examined for a level of endogenous nitrite, blood flow between aortic cusps, blood flow between pulmonary artery cusps, systolic blood pressure; diagnostic indexes F₁ and F₂ are calculated by formulae: F₁=34.06*ABF+0.89*SBP+65.96*PBF-0.43*NO_E-74.67 F₂=26.29*ABF+0.73*SBP+54.74*PBF-0.15*NO_E-51.45 wherein NOs is the level of endogenous nitrite in umbilical blood (mcmole/l); ABF is blood flow between aortic cusps (m/s); PBF is blood flow between pulmonary artery cusps (m/s); SBP is systolic blood pressure (mm Hg). If F₁ is more than F₂, posthypoxic cardiopathy is predicted, while F₁ less than F₂ shows the absence of risk of developing cardiopathy.

EFFECT: use of the method provides predicting the neonatal cardiovascular disorders by non-invasive methods in newborns delivered by mothers suffering congenital cardiac failures.
