title: [Value of the demonstration of amniotic phosphatidylglycerol in pregnancy in diabetic women].
abstract: Correlation was made between phosphatidylglycerol (PG), L/S ratio results and respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). PG determination is an accurate predictor of fetal lung maturity in diabetic pregnancies: when it is present in amniotic fluid there is never risk of RDS for the infant.
