Abstract

Behavioural states have been evaluated 2-4 hours before elective cesarean section in Control and PIH patients with growth retarded fetuses. Tryptophan determination by means of HPLC has been conducted on maternal and cord blood.The Feto/Maternal Trp ratio results were significatively reduced in PIH group and seems to be related with behavioural abnormalities.
