Abstract: | “Fetal distress”, commonly described by fetal hypoxia or compromise of the fetus during antepartum or intrapartum period, adversely affects the fetal outcome during pregnancy. Ability of early detection of fetal distress therefor improves fetal outcomes. Recent studies have proven that cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) can be used to predict / detect fetal distress. Moreover various biophysical and bio chemical markers (soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 and estimated foetal weight) have also been effective in the detection of fetal distress in labour |
