Vasa Previa Diagnosis and Treatment to Prevent Stillbirth Risk Factors and Causes of Vasa Previa. Normally, the blood vessels of the umbilical cord and the placenta are insulated Symptoms of Vasa Previa. Vasa previa does not always cause symptoms. When it does, the main symptom is the sudden.
In vasa previa, membranes that contain blood vessels connecting the umbilical cord and placenta lie across or near the opening of the cervix—the entrance to the birth canal. Pregnancy complications, such as vasa previa, are problems that occur only during pregnancy. They may affect the woman, the.
Overall, vasa praevia is associated with an increased risk of preterm birth. The associated complications of prematurity are in many cases the result of iatrogenic preterm birth in an effort to prevent stillbirth. Gestational age at delivery is the only other variable associated with perinatal outcomes in the management of vasa praevia. Vasa previa refers to unprotected fetal vessels running through the membranes over the cervix under the presenting part.
1 First described by Lobstein 2 in 1801, this condition is of great importance because rupture of these vessels may result in fetal death or severe perinatal morbidity. 1-10 Until the advent of antenatal diagnosis, vasa previa carried an extremely high rate of perinatal. Women were included if they were diagnosed with vasa previa during pregnancy orchildbirth, confirmed by clinical examination or placental pathology. The mainoutcome measures included stillbirth, neonatal death, cesarean delivery, andpreterm birth. RESULTS: Sixty-three women had a confirmed diagnosis of vasa previa.
Diagnosis and management of vasa previa. Vasa previa occurs when unprotected fetal blood vessels run through the amniotic membranes and traverse the cervix. Complications include fetal hemorrhage, exsanguination, or death. Diagnosis by ultrasound. Management: antenatal corticosteroids 28-32 weeks, considerations for preterm hospitalization at 30-34 weeks, and delivery at 34-37 weeks.
Vasa previa can occur even in cases without placental malposition and the precise diagnosis of vasa previa, and the course of the cord vessels contributes to a safe delivery. Vasa previa might be present if any of the following conditions exist: low-lying placenta (may be caused by previous miscarriages followed by curreting of the uterus (D&C) or uterine surgeries, which can cause scarring in the uterus), bilobed or succenturiate-lobed placentas, velamentous insertion of the cord, pregnancies resulting from in-vitro fertilization or multiple pregnancies. (5-6) Vasa previa bleeding is. Suspect vasa previa based on symptoms and (painless vaginal bleeding, rupture of membranes, fetal bradycardia) and/or findings during routine prenatal ultrasonography. Use transvaginal ultrasonography to confirm vasa previa and to distinguish it (fixed umbilical cord) from funic presentation (movable cord).
