摘要
This study was conducted in order to evaluate whether the performance of an experienced operator had any significant influence in reducing the incidence of complications in amniocentesis; 1,459 women had amniocentesis performed under ultrasound guidance; 1,324 were performed by experienced operators and 135 cases by less experienced operators. Complications like fetal loss, blood-stained amniotic fluid, culture failure, multiple needle puncture, leaking liquor, fetal trauma and error in results were compared in the 2 groups. This study demonstrated that amniocentesis performed by an experienced operator decreased the various complications associated with amniocentesis.
