[Perinatal influences on blood coagulation in healthy newborn infants with special reference to vitamin K administration]. 1978

U Göbel, and S Sonnenschein-Kosenow, and E Schmidt

In a prospective study the daily milk intake and weight gain were recorded in 169 healthy newborn infants during the first week of life. Factor II, V and VII activities were determined on the fourth day using a capillary blood method with hematocrit correction factor. Late onset of feeding showed a major influence on factor II and VII activities. In full-term newborns factor II was correlated to the birth weight. Mode of delivery, color of amniotic fluid, umbilical cord round the neck, Apgar score and postnatal vitamin K prophylaxis showed no significant influence. In infants with abnormal cardiotocographic findings higher levels of factor II were determined. This can be explained by stress-induced liver maturation.

D000653 Amniotic Fluid A clear, yellowish liquid that envelopes the FETUS inside the sac of AMNION. In the first trimester, it is likely a transudate of maternal or fetal plasma. In the second trimester, amniotic fluid derives primarily from fetal lung and kidney. Cells or substances in this fluid can be removed for prenatal diagnostic tests (AMNIOCENTESIS).

D001034 Apgar Score A method, developed by Dr. Virginia Apgar, to evaluate a newborn's adjustment to extrauterine life. Five items - heart rate, respiratory effort, muscle tone, reflex irritability, and color - are evaluated 60 seconds after birth and again five minutes later on a scale from 0-2, 0 being the lowest, 2 being normal. The five numbers are added for the Apgar score. A score of 0-3 represents severe distress, 4-7 indicates moderate distress, and a score of 7-10 predicts an absence of difficulty in adjusting to extrauterine life. Score, Apgar
