The study was carried out on 23 samples of amniotic fluid taken between 35th and 39th week of pregnancy from 23 pregnant women with arterial hypertension (13 cases of hypertension induced by pregnancy, 5 cases of primary hypertension and 5 cases of hypertension accompanying renal diseases). Seven women undergoing the study gave birth to newborns with symptoms of delayed intrauterine growth below 10 centile (group examined), 16 mothers gave birth to eutrophic babies (control group). In the amniotic fluid of the group examined, bilirubin revealed a significantly higher level. The authors found no changes in the concentrations of ammonia, ions H+ and HPL between the group examined and the control group whereas they were able to observe a significantly lower level of glucose and oestrogens in the amniotic fluid in case of delayed intrauterine foetal growth.
