Evaluation of the Fetal MPI in Abnormal Cardiotocography Cases in 3rd Trimester of Pregnancy and Fetal Outcome.

Evaluation of the Fetal Myocardial Performance Index in Abnormal Cardiotocography Cases in 3rd Trimester of Pregnancy and Fetal Outcome

The study will focus in evaluation of fetal cardiac function by using myocardial performance index in fetuses with abnormal cardiotocography in 3rd trimester.

The study will focus in evaluation of fetal cardiac function by using myocardial performance index in fetuses with abnormal cardiotocography in 3rd trimester.

Study Hypothesis:

In women with non reassuring fetal cardiotocography, myocardial performance index may predict fetal distress accurately.

Study Question:

In pregnant women in the third trimester with abnormal cardiotocography, Does myocardial performance index predict fetal distress accurately?

Study Objectives:

This study aims to assess the accuracy of myocardial performance index in predicting fetal distress in pregnant women with non reassuring cardiotocography in third trimester.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Women between 30-40 weeks gestational age.
2. Women pregnant in singleton fetus.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Multiple pregnancies.
2. Fetal congenital malformation.
