Endothelin-1 concentrations in cord blood of neonates with meconium-stained amniotic fluid

Background: The effects of meconium-stained amniotic fluid (MSAF) on cord blood endothelin-1 (ET-1) concentrations have not been explored.

Objective: The aim of this study was to verify whether MSAF influences ET-1 cord blood concentrations in healthy term neonates.

Methods: Using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, plasma ET-1 concentrations were determined in 30 healthy term neonates with MSAF, and in 15 healthy term neonates without MSAF...

Keywords: endothelin-1, meconium-stained amniotic fluid, neonate
