  • Title: [Gestosis index and perinatal mortality].
    Author: Jürgens H, Dichmann R.
    Journal: Zentralbl Gynakol; 1975; 97(19):1201-11. PubMed ID: 1189794.
    Abstract:
    After a detailed presentation of the new nomenclature and classification of EPH gestosis defined by the gestosis organization, this paper analyzes the gestosis index according to Goecke. The significance of the latter as a part of the symptomatic classification is determined and critically studied. The investigation is based in 934 cases of EPH gestosis comprising 40 perinatal deceased for which a correlation can be established between the cause of death and the gestosis of the mother. The investigations confirm the relevance of the gestosis index for the assessment of perinatal mortality risk. Repetitive determinations of the gestosis index can be of essential importance for controlling the development of EPH gestosis and assessing the fetal prognosis.
