ACUTE MATERNAL HYDRATION IN THIRD-TRIMESTER OLIGOHYDRAMNIOS: EFFECTS ON AMNIOTIC FLUID VOLUME, UTEROPLACENTAL PERFUSION, AND FETAL BLOOD FLOW AND URINE OUTPUT.
OBJECTIVE: Our purpose was to determine whether acute maternal hydration in pregnancies with third-trimester oligohydramnios (1) increases amniotic fluid index and hourly fetal urine production rate and (2) alters uteroplacental perfusion and fetal blood flow. [...]

MATERNAL HYDRATION INCREASES AMNIOTIC FLUID INDEX IN WOMEN WITH NORMAL AMNIOTIC FLUID.
OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that maternal oral hydration would increase the amniotic fluid (AF) index in pregnancies with normal AF. METHODS: Forty women with a normal AF index (7.0-24.0 cm) were randomized to either [...]
