Fetal Doppler: umbilical artery, middle cerebral artery, and venous system.
One of the most important applications of Doppler ultrasonography in obstetrics is the detection of fetal anemia in pregnancies complicated by either red-cell alloimmunization or by other causes of fetal anemia. Doppler of the umbilical artery also has prognostic value in pregnancies affected by twin-twin transfusion syndrome undergoing in-utero intervention. Another potential major application...
متن کاملMiddle cerebral artery Doppler
Introduction In the last 50 years we have seen tremendous advances in the management of fetal haemolytic anaemia. What was once a disease of high perinatal mortality and morbidity has become a condition readily amenable to antenatal diagnosis and intrauterine fetal therapy. Prior to the 1960s, the management of severe fetal anaemia relied on preterm delivery and subsequent therapy in the neonat...
متن کاملPrediction of fetal anemia in rhesus disease by measurement of fetal middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity.
OBJECTIVE In red blood cell (RBC) isoimmunized pregnancies fetal anemia is associated with a hyperdynamic circulation. The aim of the present study was to examine further the possible value of fetal middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MCA-PSV) in the management of affected pregnancies. METHODS A reference range of fetal MCA-PSV with gestation was constructed from the study of 813 n...
متن کاملAcute Fetal Anemia Diagnosed by Middle Cerebral Artery Doppler Velocimetry in Stage V Twin–Twin Transfusion Syndrome
In stage V twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), up to 50% of surviving twins die or experience permanent disabilities, likely due to acute intertwin hemorrhage resulting in sudden severe anemia of the survivor. Although fetal middle cerebral artery (MCA) Doppler studies demonstrate strong correlation with fetal hemoglobin values, acute hemorrhagic events are more difficult to diagnose, and op...
متن کاملPrognostic value of doppler ultrasound findings in patients with middle cerebral artery Ischemic stroke
Introduction: There is still no finding available that can show the malignant clinical course in patients with middle cerebral artery stroke. The aim of this study was to compare Doppler ultrasound findings in patients with malignant and non-malignant middle cerebral artery stroke in order to obtain its prognostic value in detecting malignant course. Method:</stro...
