Perinatal outcomes of sonographically detected nuchal cord in southeastern Turkey
Purpose:
To investigate the outcomes of pregnancies with a sonographically detected nuchal cord (NC) from a single center in south-eastern Turkey.
Materials And Methods:
A retrospective study was carried out at Maternity and Child Health Hospital Diyarbakir, Turkey, between 2011 and 2013. A-total of 477 pregnancies with sonographically detected NC during the second and third trimesteri of gestation (20-40 weeks) were included. The control group consisted of 1,043 randomly selected pregnancies without NC matched for gestational age at the time of ultrasound examination. Outcome variables, including maternal age, parity, gestational age at delivery, mnode of delivery, intrapartum fetal heart abnormalities, meconium-stained amniotic fluid, birth weight, and one- and five-minute Apgar scores, were compared between the two groups.
Results:
There were no statistically significant differences in any of the outcome variables between patients with sonographically detected NC and controls.
Conclusions:
The presence of NC indicates a need for increased care but is not associated with adverse perinatal outcomes.

Outcomes of Glycolysis
Cellular respiration can occur aerobically (with oxygen) or anaerobically (without oxygen). In the presence of oxygen, cellular respiration starts with glycolysis and continues with pyruvate...
Guidelines for Writing Outcome
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...

Sensory Information Processing
Sensory information processing begins at the sensory receptors located in the skin and other tissues, which detect somatic sensory stimuli such as touch, temperature, or pain. These receptors function as catalysts, initiating...
