NAPOLES MENDEZ, Danilo. Considerations on fetal inflammatory response syndrome. MEDISAN [online]. 2012, vol.16, n.11, pp. 1761-1772. ISSN 1029-3019.
Considering that intrauterine infection is one of the most important causes of perinatal morbidity and mortality, this literature survey is aimed at providing some knowledge of the fetal inflammatory response syndrome for obstetricians, which allows its adequate identification. Aspects of this clinical entity related to preterm delivery, chorioamnionitis and complications that damage the conceptus and the newborn in the short and long term are also included, as well as invasive, less invasive and non invasive diagnostic means and the usefulness of the early intervention. Finally, it was concluded that the guarantee of a multidisciplinary care will enable the achievement of a reduction in perinatal morbidity and mortality caused by this condition.
