Neonatal lung function following mid-trimester amniocentesis
1Division of Genetics, Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario, Canada.
Three hundred and fifty-four women who underwent midtrimester genetic amniocentesis were matched for age, parity, indication, and smoking history, with an equivalent number of women who had declined the procedure, for the purpose of comparing the neonatal respiratory status of their offspring. There was no evidence that the infants exposed to genetic amniocentesis were compromised.
