Detection and management of decreased fetal movements in Australia and New Zealand: a survey of obstetric practice.

30 Jul 2009 BACKGROUND: Decreased fetal movement (DFM) is associated with increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcome. However, there is limited research to inform practice in the detection and management of DFM. AIMS: To identify current practices and views of ... Read more...

Pregnancy complicated by cyclic vomiting syndrome.

30 Jul 2009 BACKGROUND: Cyclic vomiting syndrome is a condition that consists of recurrent episodes of vomiting occurring between periods of normal health, with no apparent organic cause of vomiting. We report the sentinel case of pregnancy complicated by ... Read more...

[The metabolic syndrome and the risks of unfavourable outcome of pregnancy]

17 Jul 2009 The metabolic syndrome is defined by abdominal obesity, elevation of blood pressure, fasting glucose and triglycerides and low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. The metabolic syndrome may play an important role in the pathogenesis of ... Read more...
