NCT05837195

Brief Summary

DDA is a new Doppler parameter aiming to assess fetal well-being in-utero. Late-onset FGR is a specific subgroup of fetuses where the clinical application of this Doppler modality could play an essential role in detecting hypoxia, anemia, and other adverse neonatal outcomes.
