Effects of Dexamethasone on Fetal Doppler Indices

Objective: To assess the impacts of dexamethasone given to the mother on fetal Doppler flow velocity waveforms of both umbilical and fetal middle cerebral arteries in pregnancies with normal fetoplacental vascular resistance. Study Design: Prospective Study. Patients and Methods: Pregnant women between 28 weeks and 34 weeks gestation at risk of preterm labour, Preterm birth was anticipated on t...

Doppler echocardiographic indices of left ventricular diastolic function

The influence of age on six Doppler echocardiographic indices of left ventricular diastolic function was assessed in 86 normal volunteers aged from 20 to 74 years (mean 36). Five of the six indices showed a linear relation with age. Duration of isovolumic relaxation and maximal late diastolic (atrial) flow velocity increased significantly with age (r = 0-34 and r = 0-69, respectively). Converse...

The Effects of Sildenafil on Fetal Doppler Indices: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

 Background & Objective:  Sildenafil citrate is a potential new strategy for the management of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and preeclampsia, although its efficacy still needs to be approved. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to systematically assess the effectiveness of sildenafil on improving fetal Doppler indices, as well as the most common adverse effects of sildenafil.  ...
