Correlation of Admission Test with Neonatal Outcome
Journal Title: People's Journal of Scientific Research. - Year 2014, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
Cardiotocography recordings of both high risk and low risk pregnant women were studied and the results were correlated with the labour outcome, perinatal mortality and various morbidity variables such as 5 min apgar score and intrapartum fetal distress. The results were statistically analysed and the diagnostic value of admission test in terms of sensitivity and specificity in predicting the labour and perinatal outcome has been calculated. Although the majority of the patients in all the trace pattern groups showed Apgar score of >7 but still a clear trend was seen as the number of neonates with apgar score of >7 decreases and the number of neonates with apgar score of <7 increases as the admission test changes from normal to pathological.
