- Objective: Determination of lactate in fetal scalp blood (FBS) during labour has been recognised since the 1970s. The internationally accepted cutoff of >4.8mmol/l indicating fetal acidosis is exclusive for the point-of-care device (POC) LactatePro™, which is no longer in production. The aim of this study was to establish a new cutoff for scalp lactate based on neonatal outcomes with the use of the StatstripLactate®/StatstripXpress® Lactate system, the only POC designed for hospital use. Design: Observational study. Setting: January 2016 to March 2020 labouring women with indication for FBS were prospectively included from seven Swedish and one Australian delivery unit. Population: Inclusion criteria: singleton pregnancy, vertex presentation, ≥35+0weeks of gestation. Method: Based on the optimal correlation between FBS lactate and cord pH/lactate, only cases with ≤25minutes from FBS to delivery were included in the final calculations. Main outcome measures: Metabolic acidosis in cord blood defined as pH <7.05 plus BDecf >10mmol/l and/or lactate >10mmol/l. Results: A total of 3334 women were enrolled of whom 799 were delivered within 25minutes. The areas under the receiver operating characteristics curves (AUC) and corresponding optimal cutoff values were as follows; metabolic acidosis AUC 0.87 (95% CI 0.77–0.97), cutoff 5.7mmol/l; pH <7.0 AUC 0.83 (95% CI 0.68–0.97), cutoff 4.6mmol/l; pH <7.05 plus BDecf ≥12mmol/l AUC 0.97 (95% CI 0.92–1), cutoff 5.8mmol/l; Apgar score <7 at 5minutes AUC 0.74 (95% CI 0.63–0.86), cutoff 5.2mmol/l; and pH <7.10 plus composite neonatal outcome AUC 0.76 (95% CI 0.67–0.85), cutoff 4.8mmol/l. Conclusion: A scalp lactate level <5.2mmol/l using the StatstripLactate®/StatstripXpress® system will safely rule out fetal metabolic acidosis. Tweetable abstract: Scalp blood lactate <5.2mmol/l using the StatstripLactate®/StatstripXpress system has an excellent ability to rule out fetal acidosis.

- Background: Cardiotocography (CTG) is a widely used method for assessing fetal wellbeing during labor. It is well-known that CTG has high sensitivity but low specificity. To avoid unnecessary operative interventions, adjunctive methods such as fetal blood sampling (FBS) are used. Few studies have looked into whether FBS can be used during second stage of labor, and in that case, which of the methods (lactate or pH) are preferred. Objective: To evaluate clinical effectiveness of measuring lactate versus pH in preventing birth acidemia when FBS was performed during second stage of labor. Methods: Secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial . Thousand three hundred and thirty-eight women with a singleton pregnancy, cephalic presentation, gestational age >= 34 weeks, and indication for FBS during second stage of labor were included. Main outcome measures: Metabolic acidemia (pH 12 mmol/l) or pH < 7.00 in cord arterial blood at birth. Secondary outcomes: A composite outcome (metabolic acidemia, pH <7 or Apgar score <4), and rates of operative deliveries. Results: Metabolic acidemia occurred in 4.1% in the lactate versus 5.1% in the pH group (relative risk (RR): 0.80; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.48-1.35) and pH <7 in 1.4% versus 2.8% (RR: 0.51, 95% CI: 0.23-1.13). Composite outcome was found in 3.8 versus 4.9%, respectively (RR: 0.76; 95% CI: 0.46-1.26). No difference in total operative interventions was found. More cesarean deliveries were performed in the lactate group (16.5 vs. 12.4%; RR: 1.33; 95% CI: 1.02-1.74). Conclusion: When analyzing lactate or pH in fetal scalp blood during second stage of labor neonatal outcomes were comparable. The frequency of total operative interventions was similar but more cesarean deliveries were performed in the lactate group.
