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

Fetal whole heart blood flow imaging using 4D cine MRI
Prenatal detection of congenital heart disease facilitates the opportunity for potentially life-saving care immediately after the baby is born. Echocardiography is routinely used for screening of morphological malformations, but functional measurements ...

Fetal Unguarded Mitral Valve Orifice, Aortic Atresia, and Severe Left Heart Enlargement
Unguarded mitral valve orifice is a rare disease with only 7 described cases in the literature. We describe the first known case of unguarded mitral valve orifice with normal segmental cardiac anatomy, severe left ventricular dilatation and dysfunction ...

Development of the Human Placenta and Fetal Heart: Synergic or Independent?
The placenta is the largest fetal organ, and toward the end of pregnancy the umbilical circulation receives at least 40% of the biventricular cardiac output.

Fetal Atrioventricular Heart Block [PDF]
As part of routine prenatal care, the obstetrician of a 25-year-old gravida 1, para 0 woman performed fetal heart-rate monitoring at 22 weeks gestational age. The fetal heart rate was 90 bpm, below the expected range of 120–160 bpm. This finding prompted a subsequent fetal ultrasound and echocardiogram.

Near to One's Heart: The Intimate Relationship Between the Placenta and Fetal Heart
The development of the fetal heart is exquisitely controlled by a multitude of factors, ranging from humoral to mechanical forces. The gatekeeper regulating many of these factors is the placenta, an external fetal organ.

The heart is a vital and complex organ in the human body that forms with most organs between the second week of pregnancy, and fetal heart rate is an important indicator or biological index to know the condition of fetal well-being. In general, long-term

The effects of acupressure, LV3 point on fetal heart rate pattern, during fetal non stress test: A randomized clinical trial [PDF]
Introduction: The fetal heart rate monitoring is actually the first test to evaluate the health of fetus. Mother's mental condition impacts the fetal heart rate pattern. Acupressure acts on the basis of acupuncture points, and according to neuro-hormonal
