Apologies for cross posting
Dear all
I am trying to conduct a sample size estimation for a proposal and could
do with some help.
I should be grateful if anyone could direct me toward the incidence of
umbilical cord blood acidosis in babies of women of 'low-risk' status
on admission in labour. I realise that there are many definitions of
umbilical (artery/venous) acidosis but any help, regardless of the
definition would be much appreciated or does anyone have the means of
calculating such a figure from routinely collected data? This may be
the case where cord bloods are routinely taken from all infants at
birth. I understand this happens in some units.
Thanks
Declan
