ABSTRACT

Obstetricians' epidemiological knowledge and their awareness of associated risk factors are essential for the primary prevention of birth defects. Screening and early diagnosis of congenital malformations is an expanding field in general obstetrics. Cardiac defects are the most frequent type of congenital malformation, and early detection is possible.
