New research links placenta praevia directly to assisted reproductive techniques
Norwegian researchers have found the first evidence that techniques used in assisted reproduction (ART) may be directly linked to an increase in placenta praevia - a potentially dangerous condition in which the placenta covers, or partially covers the cervix, blocking the baby's passage into the birth canal.   view more (2006-05-25)

New sensor to provide early warning of oxygen loss to unborn children
esearchers at the University of Warwick, and the University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust, have devised a new sensor which has the power to dramatically improve the amount of early warning doctors and midwives get of a dangerous situation in the birth process when the unborn child's brain is starved of oxygen-Fetal Hypoxia.   view more (2006-02-14)
