title: Decreased urine production in the near-term fetal lamb after maternal ethanol infusion.
abstract: Intravenous infusion of 1 gm ethanol/kg maternal body weight over 1 hour to three conscious catheterized near-term pregnant ewes decreased fetal urine production for 3 hours (overall decrease of 54% from control). This effect in the near-term fetus is opposite to the ethanol-induced diuresis that occurs in adults.
