Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Measurement of MPI

    Increased MPI means bad outcome

    2 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Cases with IUGR

Fetal weight less than 10th percentile

Procedure: Echocardiography

Cases with normal growth

Fetal weight between 10th and 90th percentile

Procedure: Echocardiography

Interventions

Modified MPI is obtained by placing the Doppler sample volume on the medial wall of the ascending aorta including the AV and MV, hence the movements of both valves are recorded simultaneously in the Doppler spectrum through measurements of the isovolumetric contraction time (ICT), isovolumetric relaxation time (IRT) and ejection time (ET). The isovolumetric contraction time (ICT) was measured from the closure of the MV to the opening of the AV, the ejection time (ET) from the opening to the closure of the AV, and the isovolumetric relaxation time (IRT) from the closure of the AV to the opening of the MV. The MPI (Tei index) was calculated using the following equation: MPI= (ICT + IRT)/ET
