ABSTRACT: Caesarean sections complicated with peritonitis were analysed in a period of 10 years. In the whole group of 2238 caesarean sections done in the years 1977-1986 peritonitis developed in 8 cases (0.36%). In this group total or supracervical hysterectomy was done between the 4th and the 7th days of puerperium. Diagnostic difficulties in puerperal peritonitis and advantages of early surgical intervention for saving the life of the women in puerperium are stressed.

ABSTRACT: The study was carried out on 48 human placentas perfused in vitro. Betamethasone was administered into the arterial systems in the following single doses: 0.4 mg, 2 mg and 10 mg. The authors found a highly significant or statistically insignificant decreased glucose consumption after administering each dose of betamethasone and at all times of the experiment. The phenomenon of a decrease in glucose consumption was attributed to an increased gluconeogenesis and releasing glucose from placental glycogen. The action of betamethasone consisting in supplying an increased amount of glucose is of great importance in the process of maturing fetal lungs in the uterus and in states threatening the fetus.

ABSTRACT: The study was carried out on 48 human placentas perfused in vitro. Betamethasone was administered into the arterial system in the following single doses: 0.4 mg, 2 mg, 10 mg. It was found that betamethasone decreases the pressure of perfusion in different ways depending on the dose. A statistically significant decrease in perfusion pressure was observed in 30th minute of the experiment after administering 2 mg while a dose of 10 mg induced a significant perfusion pressure in 30th and 60th minute of the experiment. The relaxation of the blood vessels of the placenta under the influence of betamethasone was attributed to the action of dopamine on the dopaminergic receptors of the vessels and glucocorticoids modifying this action. The results of the experiments point to a positive action of betamethasone on the blood vessels of human placenta.

ABSTRACT: The consumption of glucose under the influence of various doses of propranolol in human placentas perfused in vitro was evaluated every 30 minutes during a two-hour perfusion. In the experiment the authors did not find a significant influence of propranolol on the level of the glucose consumption. The authors found a fourfold differentiation of glucose consumption between particular placentas. In the experiment these values differed from 2.63 mumol/g/h to 10.27 mumol/g/h.

ABSTRACT: Psychological studies were performed in 57 pregnant women at risk for premature labour and 36 at risk for after term labour. The level of fear was evaluated using the Spielberger STAI questionnaire. The structure of fear and restlessness was studied using the R.B. Cattell's five factor Self-estimation Sheet. The analysis of personality structure was performed on the basis of results of the MMPI-WISKAD test. In the patients in both studied groups, groups an increased level of situational and persistent fear was found. Women at risk for premature labour are characterized by higher level of fear of neurotic character resulting from disharmonious personality. In women delivered after term the fear is of reactive character. Women at risk for after term labour are characterized by a higher degree of personality integration and more effective ability to control fear. Women at risk for premature labour are characterized by disharmonious personality and simultaneously they use more primitive protective mechanisms. Women delivered after term are characterized by higher degree of personality integration and more effective ability to control fear.
