The aim of study was to assess the referral aspects of pregnant women to pediatric cardiologist. Materials and Methods This was a retrospective cross-sectional study on 250 documents of refer...
متن کاملComparison of Fetal Echocardiography for Fetal Cardiac Structure in Women with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and Normal Pregnancies
BackgroundIncreased metabolic rate of hyperglycemia in gestational diabetes causes macrosomia, which can also affect the fetal heart. The thickness of the walls of the heart and its function in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) can change over time before treatment. We aimed to evaluate fetal cardiac structure in terms of ventricular wall thickness and its function in women w...
متن کاملMultimodal fetal transesophageal echocardiography for fetal cardiac intervention in sheep.
BACKGROUND The overall performance of available mechanical intravascular ultrasound catheters for fetal transesophageal echocardiography during fetoscopic fetal cardiac interventions in sheep has been limited by radioelectronic interference, low system frame rates, and low acoustic outputs. Therefore, a more reliable device is desired for human fetoscopic surgical procedures. METHODS AND RESU...
متن کاملAccuracy of the Fetal Echocardiography in the High Risk Pregnancies
When introduced in diagnostics, two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound revolutionized many fields of clinical medicine.1,2 Among them, the cardiology gained a huge advantage of 2D ultrasonography for postnatal diagnostics and treatment of congenital cardiac defects. Jan Donald, the father of the modern obstetrical ultrasonography, could not predict how helpful and significant ultrasonography will beco...
