UMBILICAL ARTERY COLOUR DOPPLER IN PREDICTION OF IUGR AND ITS CORRELATION WITH HISTOPATHOLOGY OF PLACENTA.
Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Abnormal umbilical artery blood flow is associated with intrauterine growth restriction of foetuses and foetal demise. The present study was done to investigate the role of umbilical artery doppler to predict intrauterine growth restriction in foetuses and its correlation with histopathological finding of placenta. METHOD: A total of 100 females having clinical suspicion of IUGR were subjected to obstetric USG and umbilical artery waveform and PI value was recorded. After delivery, placenta was sent for histopathological examination. RESULT: Placental abnormalities on histopathological examination were more common in IUGR pregnancies with abnormal umbilical artery doppler. Sensitivity of umbilical artery doppler in prediction of IUGR was 90.9% whereas specificity and PPV was 100%.
