W ith an estimated 8,000 deaths per year in the United States from complications of UCA, an initial goal of 50% reduction of loss is possible. To achieve this goal requires the recognition by the obstetrical community of the issue. Recent research into circadian rhythms may help explain why UCA stillbirth is an event between 2:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. Melatonin has been described as stimulating uterine contractions through the M2 receptor. Melatonin secretion from the pineal gland begins around 10:00 p.m. and peaks to 60 pg at 3:00 a.m. Serum levels decline to below 10 pg by 6:00 a.m. Uterine stimulation intensifies during maternal sleep, which can be overwhelming to a compromised fetus, especially one experiencing intermittent umbilical cord compression due to UCA. It is now time for the focus to be on screening for UCA, managing UCA prenatally, and delivery of the baby in distress defined by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists as a heart rate of 90 beats per minute for 1 minute on a recorded nonstress test. the ability of ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to visualize UCA is well documented. the 18-20 week ultrasound review should include the umbilical cord, its characteristics, and description of its placental and fetal attachment. Bettye Wilson, MEd, R.T.(R)(CT), RDMS, FASRT Fellow of the American Society of Radiologic Technologist recommended in RADIOLOGIC TECHNOLOGY March/April 2008, Vol. 79/No. 4 pg 333S-345S That an umbilical cord evaluation with sonography should include the appearance, composition, location, and size (and length) of the cord. In addition: Abnormal Insertion (in the placenta and fetus) Vasa Previa Abnormal composition (single umbilical artery) Cysts, Masses Hematoma Umbilical Cord Thrombosis Coiling (helices), collapse, knotting and prolapsed (funic presentation) Cord Events: Although many stillbirths are attributed to a cord accident, this diagnosis should be made with caution. Cord abnormalities, including a Nuchal Cord, are found in approximately 30% of normal births and may be an incidental finding. (American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology Practice Bulletin 2009) According to NICHD's recent stillbirth study, UCA is a significant cause of mortality (10%). This finding is in agreement with other international UCA studies. (Bukowski et al. 2011) These histologic criteria identify cases of cord accident as a cause of stillbirth with very high specificity. (Dilated fetal vessels, thrombosis in fetal vessels, avascular placental villi.) (Pediatr Dev Pathol 2012) Finally, defining the morbidity (injury) of cord compression, such as fetal neurologic injury or heart injury identified with umbilical cord blood troponin T levels or pulmonary injury, is the next major area of investigation.

Excerpt from An Essay on the Ligation and Management of the Umbilical Cord at Childbirth In an Old edition, I think the first, Of the work already referred to, the author Observes as follows That there is some difference in the structure Of the human cord and that of other animals, is not merely a rational conjecture, but proved by actual Observation. Prof. Brendel, in examining pups and heifers, found their umbilical vessels full Of rugae or folds throughout the whole Of their course, and their size much less also in proportion. In another place the same writer says, that in brutes the vessels Of the cord are much smaller than in man, and that when the animal is born, they are in a measure closed by a kind Of cellular struc ture. From this it appears that m brutes there 1s a peculiar structure Of the vessels Of the cord, tending to interrupt the flow Of blood through them, and favoring their speedy contraction after they have been cut.'

Since the therapeutic value of umbilical cord blood (UCB) stem cells was first recognised in the late 1980s, there has been a proliferation of both public and private UCB banks worldwide. However, the ability to utilise such a potentially valuable resource has provoked a number of controversies. In a distinctly accessible style, this book unpacks the socio-legal implications of the UCB collection process and constructs a detailed analysis of the law and ethics that surrounds UCB banking in the UK, including ownership of the cells. Its enquiry is located within the theoretical framework of altruism versus self-interest and explores the notions of risk and choice associated with this distinctive blend of public/private healthcare provision. The book evaluates the impact of the Human Tissue Act 2004 and the European Union Tissues and Cells Directive (2004/23/EC) on the UCB industry and provides a unique insight into the effect that the law may have on the NHS whose maternity staff and premises are used to collect UCB. This book would be of interest primarily to a UK readership in addition to expectant families, health professionals, students, academics, practitioners and the UCB industry elsewhere in the world.
