dehydroepiandrosterone and Fetal Distress

dehydroepiandrosterone has been researched along with Fetal Distress in 8 studies

Dehydroepiandrosterone: A major C19 steroid produced by the ADRENAL CORTEX. It is also produced in small quantities in the TESTIS and the OVARY. Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) can be converted to TESTOSTERONE; ANDROSTENEDIONE; ESTRADIOL; and ESTRONE. Most of DHEA is sulfated (DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE SULFATE) before secretion.
dehydroepiandrosterone : An androstanoid that is androst-5-ene substituted by a beta-hydroxy group at position 3 and an oxo group at position 17. It is a naturally occurring steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands.

Fetal Distress: A nonreassuring fetal status (NRFS) indicating that the FETUS is compromised (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists 1988). It can be identified by sub-optimal values in FETAL HEART RATE; oxygenation of FETAL BLOOD; and other parameters.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Cholic and chenodeoxycholic acids were determined in 42 cord plasma samples after pregnancies complicated by maternal intrahepatic cholestasis and in 20 cord plasma samples after uncomplicated pregnancies with a gas-chromatographic method."3.65Fetal bile acid levels in pregnancies complicated by maternal intrahepatic cholestasis. ( Laatikainen, TJ, 1975)
"To assess placental and fetoplacental function, 50 mg of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate was administered intravenously to 11 normal obstetric patients at 35 to 40 weeks and to 36 high-risk patients at 35 to 43 weeks of pregnancy."3.65Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate loading test in the diagnosis of complicated pregnancies.
