Abstract

Maternal hyperventilation may cause neonatal depression. For the evaluation of relationship between maternal acid-base status and neonatal state in elective cesarean section, we observed maternal arterial blood gases and umbilical venous blood gases, and compared them according to maternal pH. Umbilical venous PO2 in group ll(maternal pH between 7.35 and 7.45) and group lll(maternal pH more than 7.45)were significantly low, compared to group l (maternal pH less than 7.35). However, Apgar score at 1 minute and 5 minute didn't show any significant differences in each group.
