Association of socioeconomic position and medical insurance with fetal diagnosis of critical congenital heart disease.
BACKGROUND Access to beneficial novel healthcare technology has been inequitable in the United States. Fetal echocardiography, used with increasing frequency for prenatal diagnosis (PD) of congenital heart disease, allows for optimal neonatal management and possible improved outcomes. We sought to evaluate whether PD of critical congenital heart disease is related to socioeconomic (SE) position...

Termination of pregnancy was done electively in 14 cases: in six because of the identification of a cardiac anomaly and in the remaining eight because of multiple congenital anomalies.

The heart can now be studied in the early mid-trimester fetus between 14–18 weeks of ...
