Congenital heart diseases are considered the most common fetal anomalies. While some of these anomalies may have a minimal impact on the life of a newborn, some may result in neonatal deaths in the early period. With early diagnosis, detection of anomalies that are incompatible with life and termination of pregnancy with the consent of the patient can ...

Fetal Heart Rate Fragmentation [PDF]
Intrapartum fetal monitoring's primary goal is to avoid adverse perinatal outcomes related to hypoxia/acidosis without increasing unnecessary interventions. Recently, a set of indices were proposed as new biomarkers to analyze heart rate (HR), termed HR fragmentation (HRF). In this work, the HRF indices were applied to intrapartum fetal heart rate (FHR)

Fetal heart rate and fetal heart rate variability in Lipizzaner broodmares [PDF]
Monitoring fetal heart rate (FHR) and fetal heart rate variability (FHRV) helps to understand and evaluate normal and pathological conditions in the foal. The aim of this study was to establish normal heart rate reference values for the ongoing equine pregnancy and to perform a heart rate variability (HRV) time-domain analysis in Lipizzaner mares ...

Clinical fetal heart failure occurs in conditions associated with increasing left and right atrial filling and/or central venous pressures and manifests as right heart failure with the development of pericardial and pleural effusions, ascites and peripheral and placental edema. Fetal heart failure may occur in primary myocardial disease, in presence of

“Assisted” Reshaping of the Fetal Heart? [PDF]
Dramatic developments in medical imaging technologies over the past 40 years mean that we can now collect unprecedented amounts of information on cardiac and vascular structure and function. Fetal cardiac imaging, because of its requirement to image hearts on a very small scale while coping with both unpredictable movement and a rapid pulse rate, has ...

Early Evaluation of the Fetal Heart [PDF]
Evaluation of the fetal heart at 11-13 + 6 weeks of gestation is indicated for women with a family history of congenital heart defects (CHD), a previous child with CDH, or an ultrasound finding associated with cardiac anomalies. The accuracy for early detection of CHD is highly related to the experience of the operator.

HDlive of the Fetal Heart [PDF]
ABSTRACT We present the latest HDlive echocardiographic studies on the fetal heart using spatiotemporal image correlation (STIC). Fetal HDlive echocardiography with the use of new skin-like colors provides sonographers and physicians with a natural and anatomically realistic appearance of the fetal heart.

Hypoxia and Fetal Heart Development [PDF]
Fetal hearts show a remarkable ability to develop under hypoxic conditions. The metabolic flexibility of fetal hearts allows sustained development under low oxygen conditions. In fact, hypoxia is critical for proper myocardial formation. Particularly, hypoxia inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor play central roles in ...
