[Color pulsed Doppler ultrasound measurement of fetal umbilical and uterine arteries blood flow for early predict of intrauterine growth retardation].
The fetal umbilical and uterine arteries blood flow in 180 pregnant women (normal group and suspected IUGR group are separately 90 pregnancy) were measured by color pulsed Doppler ultrasound in this report. The predicting value for IUGR of Doppler ultrasound was comprised with that of the diagram of pregnancy and real-time ultrasound. There were 39 cases of IUGR, three cases of perinatal death and 138 normal infants in total 180 pregnancy. The sensitivity, specificity and positive predicting value of fetal umbilical flow for predicting IUGR were separately 78.57%, 93.75% and 91.67%. The results suggest that Doppler ultrasound blood flow measurement can predict IUGR much earlier than the diagram of pregnancy and real-time ultrasound. Combining to use Doppler ultrasound with real-time ultrasound measurement have highest sensitivity and accuracy.
