RESUMEN
Colour Doppler ultrasound was applied for monitoring the hemodynamic parameters of fetal uterine artery (UtA), umbilical artery (UA), and middle cerebral artery (MCA) during pregnancy. In hypertension disease complicating pregnancy, these hemodynamic measures and their therapeutic applicability value were reviewed (HDCP). 120 singleton pregnant women were chosen, with 40 cases of mild preeclampsia (mild group), 40 cases of severe preeclampsia (severe group), and 40 normal control pregnant women (control group). The hemodynamic parameters of UtA, MCA, and UA were monitored in the three groups, including pulsatility index (PI), resistance index (RI), and the systolic/diastolic velocity (S/D). The parameters PI, RI, S/D, and venous catheter shunt rate (Qdv/Quv) of UtA and UA in the severe group were higher than those in the normal group and the mild group, showing the differences statistically significant (P < 0.05). The PI, RI, and S/D of MCA in the severe group were lower than those in the normal group and the mild group (P < 0.05). The changing trends of PI, RI, and S/D in the severe group were all first increased and then decreased in the early, middle, and later pregnancy (P < 0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) was 0.98 in the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve created using a combination of hemodynamic measures and pregnancy outcomes, and the sensitivity and specificity for predicting bad outcomes were 94.7 percent and 96.4 percent, respectively. Colour Doppler ultrasound may accurately detect changes in the PI, RI, and S/D of UtA, MCA, and UA in pregnant women and serve as a reference for determining the intrauterine state of the fetuses and predicting bad pregnancy outcomes. In particular, the parameters in later pregnancy were higher worthy of diagnostic value for adverse pregnancy outcomes. The combination of various parameters could make an improvement of the diagnostic accuracy and provide a basis for guiding treatment as well as determining the optimal timing of delivery.

BACKGROUND: Few researches studied fetal pulmonary pulse wave doppler and the clinical end point disorders in gestational diabetic mellitus (GDM) cohort. OBJECTIVE: To investigate fetal pulmonary artery acceleration time to ejection time ratio (PATET) in the prediction of neonatal respiratory disorders (NRD). METHODS: 238 pregnant women diagnosed with GDM who attended our hospital between February 2018 and March 2020 were retrospectively included. Fetal pulmonary artery Doppler wave measurements were recorded, including main, left and right pulmonary artery blood flow, and left and right peripheral pulmonary artery blood flow. Acceleration time (At)/ejection time (Et) were calculated. RESULTS: 183 GDM pregnant women and neonates were divided into NRD(+)(nâ=â42) and NRD(-) group (nâ=â141). 16 cases were neonatal pneumonia (NP) within 28 days after birth in NRD(+) group. The area under curve (AUC) of left peripheral pulmonary artery acceleration time to ejection time (LPPATET) was 0.967 (95% CI: 0.927â¼1.000, Pâ<â0.001) and the AUC of right peripheral pulmonary artery acceleration time to ejection time (RPPATET) was 0.967 (95% CI: 0.927â¼1.000, Pâ<â0.001), indicating that LPPATET and RPPATET are both predictors for NRD. The results of interobserver variabilty and intraobserver variability showed a good consistency. CONCLUSIONS: The At/Et of fetal peripheral pulmonary artery (PPA) in GDM women may be predictors for NRD, and the indicator can provide assistance in clinical management of diabetes pregnant patients.
