Summary

The goal of this international multicentre prospective observational cohort study with a nested case-control study is to test some automated fetal heart functional parameters in healthy babies compared to those affected by a congenital heart condition.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* If there is a significant difference between the two populations of infants
* Whether these parameters could significantly improve the predictive value of actual cardiovascular profile score to predict hydrops Participants will be offered two automated cardiac function assessments between 27+6 and 29+6 gestational weeks and between 34+6 and 36+6 weeks of gestation. Functional parameters will be compared between the two study groups and evaluated over time.

Conditions

  • Congenital Heart Defect
  • Cardiac Function

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Automated fetal cardiac function evaluation

Evaluation of ultrasound parameters by automated algorithms. Ultrasound assessed parameters are: 1. Pulsed wave Doppler Modified Left and Right Myocardial performance indices 2. Spatio-temporal image correlation Tricuspid, Mitral and Septal Annular Plane Systolic Excursion
