• Target: 49

Brief Summary

To investigate the relationship between uterine artery blood volume and fetal doppler indices at the delivery.

Conditions

Fetal Doppler; Uterine Blood Flow

Keywords

Doppler; Pregnancy; ultrasound; uterine blood flow

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• We estimate the uterine volume and its correlation with the fetal doppler indices

  The volume of the uterine arteries will be measured using a doppler ultrasound. We shall also estimate the fetal doppler indices. Linear regression will be used to test for a possible relationship between uterus volume blood flow and fetal doppler parameters. Before the delivery, all of these variables will be estimated using an ultrasound exam.

Patients at term of pregnancy

We included all full-term pregnancies accepted for delivery that received an accurate ultrasound scan before the birth. Pregnant women with antepartum hemorrhage, fetal growth restriction, stillbirths, multiple gestations, or congenital abnormalities were excluded.

Other: Ultrasound exam
