title: Catecholamine levels in newborn human plasma in normal and abnormal conditions and in maternal plasma at delivery.
abstract: High levels of catecholamines have been found in plasma from the umbilical cord of newborn infants, suggesting a release of catecholamine from the fetus during parturition. Plasma catecholamine levels are also elevated in mothers at delivery.
