BackgroundAmnioticfluidincreasesinvolumeasthefoetusgrowsandpeaksatanaverageof800mLatapproximately34weeksofgestation.
Approximately600mLofamnioticfluidsurroundsthebabyatfullterm(40weeks).
Thisfluidiscirculatedconstantlybythebabyinhalingandswallowingexistingfluidandreplacingitthroughexha-lationandurination[1].
Amnioticfluidaccomplishesnumerousfunctions:(1)itprotectsthefoetusfrominjurybycushioningsuddenblowsormovements,(2)itenablesfoetalmovementandsymmetricalmusculoskele-taldevelopment,(3)itmaintainsarelativelyconstanttemperatureandthusprotectsthefoetusfromheatloss,and(4)itensuresproperfoetallungdevelopment[1,2].
Lowlevelsofmagnesiuminamnioticfluidareasso-ciatedwithpregnancycomplicationssuchaspreeclamp-sia[3]anddiabetes[4,5].
Magnesiumsupplementshavebeendemonstratedtoreducethefrequencyofdelayedfoetalgrowth,especiallyinlow-birth-weightbabies.
How-ever,thegeneralbenefitsofmagnesiumforfoetalgrowthanddevelopmenthavenotbeendemonstrated[6];theMagpiestudy[7],forexample,concludedthattreatmentwithmagnesiumdidnotimprovepreeclampsia.
Consequently,knowledgeofthevaluesforthisioninnormalamnioticfluidmayprovideapreventiveandearlydiagnosisofcertainmaternalandfoetalpatholo-gies.
Amniocentesisisperformed,ifindicated,fromthesecondtrimesterofpregnancy.
Althoughmagnesiumvaluesinamnioticfluid[8-11]arereportedinthelitera-ture,noreferencevaluesareprovidedforthethreedif-ferentpregnancytrimesters.
Magnesiuminserumisreducedduringpregnancyandsoadditionalmagnesiumisrequiredinthediet[6,12,13].
Therecommendeddailyintakeforpregnantwomenishigherthanforthesameagegroupofnon-pregnantwoman,yetmostpregnantwomendonotcon-sumetherequiredamount[6].
Becausevariationsinmagnesiumvaluescouldbeuse-fulasdiagnosticandtherapeuticguidelinesforpossiblecomplications,ouraimwastodeterminemagnesiumlevelsinamnioticfluidsoastoestablishnormalvaluesforthe14-to-18-weekintervalofthesecondtrimesterofpregnancy.
