CONCLUSION
In conclusion, we found that in addition to maternal fever, fetal and maternal tachycardia, elevated leukocyte count and CRP were common findings in term deliveries complicated by chorioamnionitis. Elevated inflammatory markers were associated with both neonatal infection and asphyxia-related complications, and fetal tachycardia additionally predicted asphyxia-related complications. Our findings highlight the importance of a close collaboration between obstetric and neonatal care extending past delivery to detect maternal dynamic laboratory changes which could impact neonatal outcomes.
