✦ Synopsis

For psychological reasons, coelocentesis was performed in 20 women prior to termination of pregnancy, at 6-11 weeks of gestation. The fetal heart rate (FHR) was measured immediately before the procedure and at 1, 5, and 10 min afterward. There was no significant difference between FHR before coelocentesis compared to the values at 1 min (mean ϭ 158, range 114-178; z ϭ Ϫ0.629, P ϭ 0.529), 5 min (mean ϭ 160, range 121-179; z ϭ Ϫ0.191, P ϭ 0.848), or 10 min (mean 159, range 117-183; z ϭ Ϫ0.214, P ϭ 0.83) after the procedure. These findings suggest that coelocentesis does not have a major effect on the fetal cardiovascular system.
