Abstract
3 and 12 IUGR pregnancies between 28 and 41 gestation week were examined in the cross sectional study. Villous arteries color Doppler flow patterns in IUGR pregnancies were related with the same pictures of uncomplicated pregnancies. Villous arteries were identified by color Doppler image of the placenta. 37 women with uncomplicated pregnancy and 12 with IUGR pregnancy between 28 and 41 gestation week were analyzed. Villous arteries were identified in the placenta structure. Presence of the blood vessels were colerated with pH level from umbilical artery after the labor and with infant condition in the Apgar scale. There was an important difference between the pH levels in group with uncomplicated pregnancy (pH = 7.31100) and the group with IUGR (pH = 7.218583). What is more, in group with IUGR two subgroups could be find: 1st with presence of villous arteries in color Doppler and 2nd without villous arteries. Important difference in pH level of umbilical blood after labor between these two subgroups were identified (pH = 7.292000 for the 1st subgroup and pH = 7.115800 for the 2nd). Important difference in Apgar grades between the group with uncomplicated pregnancy and the IUGR group were identified but the difference was not identified between the IUGR subgroups. Examining placental vessels in our investigation is an important prognostic factor differentiating the degree of limitation of blood flow in placenta. It has a strict connection with the condition of fetus and infant.
