Overview

Cord blood angiotensin II levels associate with vaginal delivery and maternal hypertension; leaves open any neonatal physiologic role.

Structured PICO

P
Population
45 pregnant patients and their infants at delivery
O
Outcome
Angiotensin II concentrations in maternal peripheral, cord venous and cord arterial bloodsurrogate

Angiotensin II concentrations in infants at birth are influenced by the mode of delivery, duration of labor, and maternal hypertensive disease, suggesting a placental contribution during labor.
