[A clinical analysis of fetoplacental blood flow in prognosis of fetal emergency in pregnancies complicated by hypertension].
METHODS
The aim of our study was a clinical analysis of fetoplacental blood flow in prevision of fetal hypoxia in pregnancy complicated by a hypertension.


METHODS
Between 1995-1997 105 pregnant women delivered in 2nd Dept. Of Gynecology and Obstetrics Medical University of Gdansk. They were divided into two groups: 53 patients with hypertension and control group of 52 pregnant women. In all cases a doppler umbilical blood flow was estimated using 5 MHz Convex sounder.


RESULTS
In a group of pregnant women with hypertension abnormal results of doppler fetoplacental blood flow were found. Twice more often a caesarean section was made because of fetal emergency symptoms.


CONCLUSIONS
The results of fetoplacental blood flow are one of more important prognostic factors in pregnancies complicated by a hypertension.
