Study Type: Observational




Official Title: Variability in Middle Cerebral Artery Doppler Measurements in Uncomplicated Term Pregnancies.

Brief Summary:

Doppler measurements in the Middle Cerebral Artery (MCA) is a part of the assessment for assessing fetal well-being in complicated pregnancy, including Intra Uterine Growth Retardation and Fetal Anemia.

The use of this Doppler measurement in uncomplicated term pregnancies is not a common practice due to lack of information. However, several studies use the MCA Pulsatility Index (PI) as part of the Cerebro-Placental-Ratio (CPR) measurment at term.

The purpose of this trial is to assess MCA Doppler variability in term, uncomplicated pregnancy.
