Many pregnant women do not like to drink water, and their body's water and salt balance is also very unbalanced, which can easily lead to a lack of amniotic fluid. If the amount of amniotic fluid is too low, it is very detrimental to the mother during pregnancy, and the fetus is also difficult to survive. In such situations, doctors would recommend pregnant women to undergo amniotic fluid infusion, but many pregnant women are not clear about what this therapy is. So how is amniotic fluid perfusion therapy performed?
There are two main ways of amniotic fluid infusion therapy. The first is to infuse the amniotic membrane through the inner wall of the pregnant woman's abdomen and vagina. This method can only be used when there is no rupture of the membrane. Amniotic fluid infusion mainly uses physiological saline, which needs to be heated before infusion and cannot be infused too much at once, up to 800 milliliters. It is best to use gravity as the driving force for infusion to avoid the harm caused by injection. It's best to add some antibiotics and nutrients to the infused liquid to help the baby develop. Moreover, amniotic fluid infusion can be performed multiple times, but it must be done at a professional hospital to avoid infection.
The therapy of amniotic fluid perfusion can also help doctors determine whether the fetus has abnormalities. If there is insufficient amniotic fluid, it is very difficult to monitor the internal organ structure of the fetus. The therapy of amniotic fluid perfusion can increase the sound window and improve the accuracy of judgment.
