Abstract

Blood flow in the umbilical cord and placenta has been observed with real‐time sonography. In some of the larger “cystic” spaces within the placenta a pattern of pulsatile, whorling, and accelerating flow is seen, suggesting an arteriovenous connection.

The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that the acceleration time (AT) of the fetal umbilical artery remains constant at term for normal pregnancies. In addition, we also examined whether the AT has any correlation with umbilical cord blood hematocrit (Hct). In total, 539 normal-term f

Purpose. We studied whether umbilical artery catheters (UACs) affect blood flow in the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) of neonates. Methods. Noninvasive duplex pulsed Doppler sonography was used to measure peak systolic velocity, end-diastolic velocity, and mean flow velocity in the SMA. The resis
