The umbilical cord is too short or relatively short
Introduction
Introduction The baby is not honest in the mother's body. It tumbling in the uterus where space is not very large, and it is often active. Each baby has different characteristics, some of the baby's movements are relatively gentle, and some of the baby's movements are larger, especially for sports. He plays and plays in his mother's womb, moves his arms, stretches his legs, and turns a circle. At this time, umbilical cord entanglement may occur. The umbilical cord is too long and too short to be congenital, not for some reason. The length of the normal umbilical cord is about 55 cm.

Obstetric examination Obstetrics B-ultrasound
B-ultrasound can clearly see the shape of the larger organs of the fetus, the activity of the fetus in the uterus, the amount of amniotic fluid, the shape and location of the placenta, and the presence or absence of bleeding after the placenta. It is an important diagnostic tool for obstetrics. One.
Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
It should be differentiated from the umbilical cord around the neck: the umbilical cord around the neck is a common condition during fetal delivery. It is generally believed that this is related to the umbilical cord being too long and the fetal movement frequency. It is expected that the length of the blood vessel is longer than that of the umbilical cord. In general, the blood vessel curl is spiral, and the umbilical cord itself is surrounded by the gel, which has a certain elasticity. Therefore, the number of weeks around the neck is not directly related to the survival degree of the fetus. Only after the labor, as the contraction tightens, the lowered fetal head will tighten the umbilical cord, which will cause the umbilical cord to be too short, so that it can not be delivered smoothly. At this time, the more the number of winding cycles, the more dangerous. B-ultrasound can be used to see if the fetus has a umbilical cord around the neck before birth, and sometimes the umbilical cord murmur can be heard in the abdomen. Therefore, it is more necessary to listen to the fetal heart and pay attention to fetal movement in order to take timely measures.
