Intraamniotic digoxin administration versus intracardiac or funic potassium chloride administration to induce foetal demise before termination of pregnancy: a prospective study.

Different foeticide techniques and pharmacological agents have been used to achieve foetal asystole. This study aimed to compare the success of intraamniotic digoxin, intracardiac potassium chloride (KCl), and funic KCl in achieving foetal asystole and discuss procedural difficulties for physicians and clinical outcomes. This prospective observational study included 124 patients who received foeticide at 22-31 weeks of gestation.

Prenatal diagnosis and management of fetal supraventricular tachyarrhythmia and postnatal outcomes.

Objective: We aimed to describe a single institutional experience managing tachyarrhythmic fetuses, to investigate the underlying pathological findings and to evaluate the postnatal follow-up results.

Method: This retrospective study included 24 fetuses, treated and followed up with the diagnosis of supraventricular tachyarrhythmia between January 2014 and July 2020. Fetal tachyarrhythmia was evaluated by M mode and Doppler ultrasound.

Simple Hematological Markers in Predicting the Severity of Transient Tachypnea of Newborn: New Wine in Old Bottles.

Objectives: To evaluate the validity of red cell distribution width (RDW), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and platelet mass index (PMI) of patients with transient tachypnea of the newborn (TTN), and to find out their roles in predicting severity of TTN.

Patients And Methods: In this prospective study, hematological parameters (RDW, PMI) and ratios (NLR, PLR) of 147 patients with TTN and 147 full-term healthy controls were evaluated and compared at birth and at 72nd h of life.

Patient: s with TTN and 147 full-term healthy controls were evaluated and compared at birth and at 72nd hours of life.

Foetal thoracic hypoplasia: concomitant anomalies and neonatal outcomes.

The aim of the current study was to determine the frequency of concomitant anomalies in foetal thoracic hypoplasia and the neonatal outcomes of these pregnancies. This retrospective study included 49 cases of foetal thoracic hypoplasia. All of the cases had skeletal system anomalies.
