RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: To determine the longitudinal trends of middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MCA PSV) in fetuses with mild or moderate hemolytic disease according to the need for postnatal therapy. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. SETTING: University referral center. SAMPLE: Twenty-three fetuses from singleton alloimmunized pregnancies. METHODS: Serial measurements of MCA PSV were performed. After delivery, newborns were grouped by the need for postnatal management into mild hemolytic disease, which required no or only phototherapy (n = 14, group 1), and moderate hemolytic disease, where postnatal top-up or exchange transfusions were required (n = 9, group 2). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Serial Doppler MCA PSV data transformed to multiples of the median, analyzed with linear regression and exponential models. RESULTS: We performed 83 measurements in group 1: 3-8 per fetus; mean GA at inclusion, 23 weeks and 65 measurements in group 2: 4-15 per fetus; mean GA at inclusion, 22 weeks. The estimated mean slopes of the MCA PSVs increased with the degree of postnatal therapy required (group 1: MCA PSV = 0.003 GA + 1.298; group 2: MCA PSV = 0.035 GA + 0.436). The relative average increments (RAI) were 4.7% and 7.1%, respectively. The two groups exhibited significant differences in mean slope and RAI (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Fetuses that required postnatal transfusions due to hemolytic disease showed an enhanced progressive increase in MCA PSVs compared to those without transfusion requirement. This information might enable their identification during pregnancy.

RESUMEN

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the prenatal rate of congenital heart defects (CHDs) and the frequency of termination of pregnancy (TOP) due to a CHD, depending on the severity of the defect and concomitant diseases of the fetus.Methods: The data were assessed retrospectively between 2002 and 2017. Ultrasound examination was performed mostly in the second trimester. For analysis, the CHDs were divided into three groups of severity and three groups of fetus impairment.Results: A total of 40,885 fetuses underwent echocardiography. The CHDs were detected in 1.0% (398/40,885) and were an isolated anomaly in 69% (275/398). Forty-nine percent (197/398) of families decided to TOP. In all groups of severity, the rate of TOP rose linearly when comparing isolated defects and cases with associated morphological and genetic impairments. The TOP was significantly dependent on the associated anomalies in patients with the most correctable defects (p < .001) and the severity of CHDs in isolated cases without any other impairment (p < .001).Conclusion: The parents' decision to terminate increased with the severity of the defect and the associated anomalies of the fetus. The parents were mostly influenced by the associated anomalies when the CHD was correctable, and genetic factors played a more important role than morphological ones.

RESUMEN

Objective: The main aim of this study was to compare the prevalence of congenital heart defects (CHDs) between pregnant women with and those without the risk factors. The secondary aim was to determine the influence of the specific risk factors, divided into subgroups, on the development of the CHD. Methods: The presented results were obtained over the course of a 15-year study between years 2002 and 2016. Fetal echocardiography was performed as a planned screening examination during the second trimester of gravidity. A total of 35,831 singleton pregnancies were examined at our center. Risk factors for the development of CHDs were analyzed and divide into the following groups: (i) maternal age ≥35 years; (ii) mother-related risk factors; (iii) pregnancy- and fetus-related risk factors; (iv) pregnancy after in vitro fertilization (IVF); (v) history of CHDs in the first-degree family member; (vi) history of CHDs in the second-degree family member; and (vii) positive genetic family history. Results: The risk factors were identified in 25% (8990/35,831) of pregnancies. In total, CHDs were detected in 1.1% (394/35,831) of fetuses. The prevalence rate of CHDs was higher in the pregnancies with than in those without the risk factors (2.5% [221/8990] versus 0.6% [173/26,841]; p < .0001). The presence of pregnancy- and fetus-related risk factors (odds ratio [OR], 6.5; 95% confidence interval [CI], 4.3-9.7) and pregnancy after IVF (OR, 2.8; 95% CI, 1.5-5.2) were found to be independent risk factors of CHDs. Conclusions: The presence of specific risk factors is related to the increasing prevalence of CHDs. Pregnancy- and fetus-related risk factors and in vitro fertilization were found to be the independent risk factors of CHD.
