title: [Anaesthesia and therapy for gestosis - impact on the newborn (author's transl)].
abstract: Adaptation of 33 newborns and their clinical symptoms during the first weeks of age were studied retrospectively, with reference to cases in which the pregnant mothers had undergone treatment for hypertension, anaesthesia, and caesarean section. Primary adaptability was unambiguously limited in all newborns, with symptoms of impaired sensual motoricity being additionally recorded from 16 of them. Apnoeic seizures occurred to six children on their first day of age and called for continuous cardiorespiratory monitoring. Premature and hypotrophic newborns were primarily affected. Those delayed symptoms were attributed, first of all, to medicamentous effects. More caution should be exercised in prescribing neurodepressors of the Diazepam type, particularly in early pregnancy, say, prior to the 37th week. - An analysis was made of blood gas data in the blood of umbilical arteries of infants whose birth had been preceded by gestosis or eclampsia. Yet, their intranatal respiratory situation was not found to be basically worse than that of a control group.
