Blood coagulation status of small-for-dates and postmature infants

Blood coagulation status of small-for-dates and postmature infants

M Perlman et al. Arch Dis Child. 1975 Jun.

Abstract

In a prospective study of blood coagulation status in small-for-dates and postmature infants there was often evidence of intravascular coagulation. Abnormal coagulation findings correlated with the degree of growth retardation and with the degree of postmaturity. Macroscopical placental infarction and neonatal polycythaemia were associated with coagulation abnormalities; asphyxia, however, was not. Intravascular coagulation may be an additional hazard to small-for-dates and postmature infants.
