TL;DR: The effect of sustained hypoxemia with progressive acidemia on pituitary-adrenal endocrine function (adrenocorticotropic hormone, cortisol) and on adrenal blood flow in fetal sheep is examined and it is concluded that the changes in fetal adrenocortiotropic hormone and cortisol seen in short-term hypoxia are reproduced during sustained hyp oxemia with acidemia.
