Fetal Instability and Resuscitative Management During Fetal Intervention: A Retrospective, Descriptive Analysis of 245 Fetal Cardiac and Spina Bifida Procedures. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective The heterogeneity of fetal surgery has led to variability in the nature and frequency of fetal instability. Understanding these differences is critical for optimizing management. Methods We reviewed all fetal atrial septal interventions (FASI) and fetoscopic myelomeningocele (fMMC) repairs with fetal instability performed at our ...
