Abstract

Abstract :

Advancement in using doppler velocimetry has revolutionized and improved. Obstetrical practice also has allowed the in-vivo study of placental- fetal circulation, with assessment of the level of the fetal oxygenation and the degree of the blood flow resistance. Pregnancies with reversed or absent end diastolic flow have been associated with high rates of perinatal mortality.

Ductus Venosus Doppler can be used in these cases to find if there is an association between ductus venosus flow and postnatal outcomes .

Objective: Using the Ductus venosus doppler to evaluate fetuses suffering IUGR with abnormal umbilical artery doppler .

Aim of the work : Evaluation of Ductus venosus doppler value in abnormal umbilical artery doppler as an additional method to reduce perinatal mortality and morbidity in IUGR fetuses.

Study design and setting: A prospective study carried out in obstetrics and gynecology department , faculty of medicine , Minia University , Egypt.
