Neonatal outcome of abnormal versus normal antenatal Doppler in high-risk pregnancies

Background: Umbilical Doppler flow abnormalities occur in 6% of high-risk pregnancies. Preterm infants born with the umbilical artery waveforms is at a risk various complications. The objective this study were to understand and compare neonatal outcome normal verses abnormal antenatal Doppler.Methods: 100 newborns each Doppler, women singleton pregnancies 28 weeks above, enrolled for after taking informed written consent from parents. All followed up outcomes Results: Majority fetal seen mothers PIH (50% 21%) Intra uterine growth restriction (59% 29%) which was statistically significant. babies group delivered by LSCS compared (72% 36%). Neonates had more becoming SGA (52% 24%), developing NEC (32% 18%) thrombocytopenia (34% 17%). need longer duration NICU stay (22 days 14 days) mechanical ventilation them (17% 7%) group.Conclusions: Colour useful modality predict It allows better understanding hemodynamic changes feto-placental utero-placental circulation helps pediatrician anticipate complications early intervention thus results decreased morbidity mortality.
