Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: The aim of this study is to compare the difference of fetal heart rate (FHR) variables in women aged between healthy over 35 years and under 34 years at term pregnancy by using computerized analysis of fetal heart rate.
Methods: After conventional 20-minutes non-stress test (NST), 148 elderly gravida and 169 gravida younger than 34 years at term pregnancy were covered in this study. We analyzed the FHR, using our on-line computerized FHR analysis system, HYFM-II (window version 1.0).1
Results: Significant differences didn’t exist in the amount of baseline FHR, FHR variability, signal loss, number of fetal movement, the number of FHR acceleration and the number of FHR deceleration that was obtained by our computerized FHR analysis system between two groups.
Conclusions: There was no significant differences in FHR variables obtained by computerized FHR analysis system between two groups. However, reduction of perinatal managements will be more important subject through the prenatal care of increased old aged pregnancies by using these objective and rationalized analysis methods. Also, we will reduce unnecessary Caesarean section of old aged pregnancies.
