چکیده
Hypertensive disorders complicating pregnancy(HDCP)is a pregnancy-specific disease. It often occurs after 20 weeks and the incidence was 9.4% in our country while 7% -12% [1] in the foreign reports. Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy is a great harm for maternals which can seriously damage the heart, brain, kidney and other organs of pregnant woman [2,3] and the incidence of premature children, fetal growth restriction, fetal distress are significantly higher. So it is the main cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality, ranking in the first 5 reasons of maternal death [4,5]. From the study of cardiac reserve function, we can reduce maternal mortality and improve the quality of perinatal care.

متن کاملComparison of Fetal Echocardiography for Fetal Cardiac Structure in Women with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and Normal Pregnancies
BackgroundIncreased metabolic rate of hyperglycemia in gestational diabetes causes macrosomia, which can also affect the fetal heart. The thickness of the walls of the heart and its function in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) can change over time before treatment. We aimed to evaluate fetal cardiac structure in terms of ventricular wall thickness and its function in women w...

Background: Critical congenital heart diseases (CCHDs) are among the most common birth malformations. This study aimed to determine the cardiac and noncardiac diseases in the Iranian healthy newborns using pulse oximetry (POX) as a suggested screening method.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, healthy term and near term neonates who were born from October 2017 to March 2018 were evalu...
متن کاملNeonatal Hypertension: Etiology, Diagnosis and Management
Neonatal hypertension is a rare and complex condition, with an incidence rate of 0.2% to 3%. It can be resulted by several risk factors such as renal diseases, use of several drugs, neurologic, cardiac, respiratory and endocrine causes. Gestational age, birth weight and conceptual age are the most important risk factors. Renal diseases can be found in about 25% to 50% of hypertension at neonata...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cardiac Mitochondrial Function by a Nuclear Imaging Technique using Technetium-99m-MIBI Uptake Kinetics
Mitochondria play an important role in energy production for the cell. The proper function of a myocardial cell largely depends on the functional capacity of the mitochondria. Therefore it is necessary to establish a novel and reliable method for a non-invasive assessment of mitochondrial function and metabolism in humans. Although originally designed for evaluating myocardial perfusion, 99mTc...
