  • Fetalna medicina: ugotavljanje in zdravljenje anemije pri plodu = Fetal medicine: prediction and therapy of fetal anemia
    Premru-Sršen, Tanja ; Pušenjak, Stanko
    Fetal anemia may occur for immune, non-immune or idiopathic causes. Alloimmunization is one of the most common cause of fetal anemia. Maternal antibodies trigger hemolysis of fetal erythrocytes. The ... development of fetal anemia may be monitored in several ways. If only obstetrical history and monitoring of antibody titers are used, one third of severe anemia cases may be missed. The measurement of bilirubin in amniotic fluid is unreliable in theprediction of fetal anemia before the 28th week of gestation. The measurement of the highest blood flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery has been considered to be a quite reliable method for fetal anemia detection in recent years. However, further studies are required to established the relations among obstetrical history, antibody titers and ultrasound signs of fetal anemia.
