Summary

Diabetic and hypertensive pregnant women attending at Kasr Alani for antenatal care were subjected to Complete History taking. All the participants were scanned using B mode sonography to determine the fetal biometric parameters (BPD, HC, AC and FL).Only umbilical artery pulsatility index (UAPI) and pulmonary vein pulsatility index (PVPI) were measured in the study. UAPI and PVPI were measured between 28 and 34 weeks of gestation at the first routine ultrasound scheduled.

Conditions

  • Intrauterine Growth Restriction

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Ultrasound

All the participants were scanned using B mode sonography to determine the fetal biometric parameters (BPD, HC, AC and FL). The machine automatically calculated the estimated fetal weight using the Headlock formula. umbilical artery pulsatility index (UAPI) and pulmonary vein pulsatility index (PVPI) were measured in the study
