Intranatal amniotic fluid assessment
The perceptive assessment of amniotic fluid at the time of labour and
the nuchal cord status (Fig.6) showed that the incidence of reduced -
absent liquor was much higher in the NCB group than in the NNCB group
(***p). Most NCB group patients fell in the reduced–absent liquor group
(***p). Interestingly, adequate liquor incidence was significantly
higher than reduced – absent liquor in the NNCB group (***p). However,
there is also a substantially higher incidence of excess liquor in the
NCB group than the NNCB group (***p).
