Alternative parameters for echocardiographic assessment of fetal diastolic function
Alternative methods to assess ventricular diastolic function in the fetus are proposed. Fetal myocardial hypertrophy in maternal diabetes was used as a model of decreased left ventricular compliance (LVC), and fetal respiratory movements as a model of increased LVC. Comparison of three groups of fetuses showed that, in 10 fetuses of diabetic mothers (FDM) with septal hypertrophy (SH), the mean ...
متن کاملFetal Cardiac Anomalies; A Fetal Echocardiographic Study
= Abstract = Sewn years' experience of fetal echocardiography was reviewed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of fetal echocardiography, distribution of individual cardiac anomalies, and some practical problems of fetal echocardiography in Korea. A total of 737 fetuses IMlre examined and 45 confirmed and 20 unconfirmed cardiac structural anomalies IMlre identified. In general, fetal echocardiogr...

متن کاملUltrasound assessment of fetal cardiac function
Introduction: Fetal heart evaluation with US is feasible and reproducible, although challenging due to the smallness of the heart, the high heart rate and limited access to the fetus. However, some cardiac parameters have already shown a strong correlation with outcomes and may soon be incorporated into clinical practice. Materials and Methods: Cardiac function assessment has proven utility in ...
متن کاملEchocardiographic assessment of cardiac anatomy and function in hypertensive subjects.
Cardiovascular complications are a major source of morbidity and mortality in hypertensive patients. To assess the prevalence of anatomic and functional abnormalities of the heart in such patients, we studied 234 asymptomatic subjects with mild-to-moderate systemic hypertension by echocardiography. After adjusting the echocardiographic values for age and body surface area, we found abnormally i...
