Implication

Supports normative fetal pulmonary venous reference ranges; leaves open prognostic value in high-risk pregnancies.

Structured PICO

Population

28 normal singleton pregnancies at 20-36 weeks of gestation (out of 60 attempted)

Intervention

Doppler measurements of fetal pulmonary venous inflow velocities

Outcome

Pulmonary venous flow velocity pattern into the left atrium relative to systolic and diastolic phases of the cardiac cycle and its gestational age dependencysurrogate

Fetal pulmonary venous inflow into the left atrium occurs throughout the cardiac cycle, predominantly during filling and ejection phases, with velocity increasing with gestational age.
