Ultrasound Hemodynamic Assessment in Newly Diagnosed Fetal Growth Restriction: A Pilot Study
Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
Summary
The purpose of this research study is to study the use of an ultrasound measurement system (USCOM) for patients with newly diagnosed fetal growth restriction (FGR). This system uses a technology to measure how much blood is being pumped in and out of the heart, which is important for understanding the heart's function in relation to pregnancy.
