Population

56 fetuses

Intervention

Standard protocol for 2D speckle tracking (2D-strain) and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) based strain and strain rate analysis

Outcome

Feasibility, reproducibility, and correlation for longitudinal strain and strain rate measurementssurrogate

A standardized protocol for fetal heart strain analysis using TDI and 2D speckle tracking is highly feasible and reproducible, though the two methods are not interchangeable.
