“…There are a few controversial reports on the effect of HD on placental function, and it remains uncertain whether HD effects feto-and uteroplacental circulation in a manner that could be detected by measurement of Doppler flow velocity waveforms [25][26][27] . In our series, 1 case of Doppler resistance deteriorated from normal to abnormal.…”

Objectives: To evaluate the effect of intensive fetal surveillance via Doppler ultrasound and fetal non-stress test on the perinatal outcome of pregnant women undergoing an intensified hemofiltration scheme. Methods: Five consecutive pregnancies of women undergoing intensified hemodialysis were analyzed due to the following parameters: maternal background, hemodialysis schedule during pregnancy, blood pressure, occurrence of fetal complications, occurrence of obstetric complications, gestational week at delivery, mode of delivery, and newborn outcome and follow-up. Results: All pregnancies resulted in a live birth, mean gestational age was 32 weeks. Intrauterine growth restriction occurred in 4 fetuses, pathological umbilical artery flow velocity waveforms in 2. The mean birth weight was 1,764 g (range 1,274–2,465 g). Cesarean section was performed in 3 patients because of fetal distress. None of the patients developed severe complications like pre-eclampsia. Conclusions: Although intensified dialysis enables the maintenance of stable uteroplacental and fetal perfusion, intensive fetal monitoring is mandatory to reduce perinatal morbidity and mortality in pregnant women on maintenance dialysis.

In order to keep subscribers up‐to‐date with the latest developments in their field, John Wiley & Sons are providing a current awareness service in each issue of the journal. The bibliography contains newly published material in the field of prenatal diagnosis. Each bibliography is divided into 17 sections: 1 Books, Reviews & Symposia; 2 General Interest; 3 Normal Fetal Development; 4 Gametogenesis and Pre‐implantation Diagnosis; 5 First Trimester Diagnosis; 6 Second Trimester Diagnosis; 7 Fetal Diagnosis by Ultrasound and Other Imaging; 8 Maternal Screening; 9 Screening for Carriers of Genetic Abnormality; 10 Technological Developments; 11 Confined Placental Mosaicism and Uniparental Disomy; 12 Molecular Cytogenetics; 13 Fetal Cells in Maternal Circulation; 14 Fetal Therapy; 15 Psychosocial Aspects; 16 Epidemiology and Environmental Factors; 17 Developmental Pathology. Within each section, articles are listed in alphabetical order with respect to author. If, in the preceding period, no publications are located relevant to any one of these headings, that section will be omitted
