简要总结
The investigators aim to improve the understanding of TEG in this population in an effort to improve outcomes in a population at high risk in both the presence and absence of blood product transfusions.
详细描述
The investigators plan to 1.) examine dynamic hemostasis as measured by TEG in the intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) neonatal population due to a high risk of requiring blood transfusions, 2.) determine the influence of gestational age on TEG in this population, and 3.) examine the utility of TEG as a tool for identifying coagulopathy in IUGR neonates.
The investigators hypothesize that thromboelastography parameters will change with gestational age in the IUGR population in a manner similar to non-IUGR populations and that neonatal comorbidities, maternal factors, and socioeconomic status will influence TEG values; TEG is likely a useful marker of dynamic hemostasis in this neonatal subpopulation.

结局指标
主要结局
Dynamic hemostasis measured by Thromboelastography (TEG) in intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) neonatal population verse non-IUGR populations
时间窗: Immediately postpartum
Discarded blood specimens (1-2 mL of placental umbilical vein blood following umbilical cord clamping) will be needed to perform TEG analysis, in duplicate when possible, immediately following the live birth of a viable neonate. The output of the TEG will include maximum amplitude (mm), which is a reflection of clot strength and a function of the maximum dynamic properties of fibrin and platelet bonding and correlates to platelet function.
次要结局
- Clot formation measured by Thromboelastography (TEG) in intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) neonatal population verse non-IUGR populations(Immediately postpartum)
- Rate of clot formation measured by Thromboelastography (TEG) in intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) neonatal population verse non-IUGR populations(Immediately postpartum)
