Fetal Echocardiography

Fetal Echocardiography is a specialized ultrasound test that provides detailed images of the fetal heart. This non-invasive diagnostic tool is crucial for assessing the heart’s structure, function, and rhythm while the baby is in the womb. It is particularly recommended for pregnancies at risk of congenital heart defects, such as those with a family history of heart conditions, maternal diabetes, or when anomalies are suspected during a routine prenatal ultrasound.

Frequently Asked Question

Fetal echocardiography is an ultrasound test performed during pregnancy to evaluate the structure, function, and rhythm of the fetal heart. It provides detailed images of the baby’s heart.
It’s performed to detect congenital heart defects early in pregnancy, assess the heart’s function, and plan for any necessary care or intervention after birth.
It’s usually performed between 18 to 24 weeks of gestation, but it can be done earlier or later in the pregnancy if there’s a suspected heart defect or a high risk of heart abnormalities.
It’s recommended for pregnancies at increased risk of fetal heart defects, including those with a family history of congenital heart disease, maternal diabetes, certain infections during pregnancy, or if abnormalities were noted on a routine prenatal ultrasound.
Similar to a routine ultrasound, a transducer is moved over the mother’s abdomen to produce images of the fetal heart. The procedure is non-invasive and does not require anesthesia.
Yes, it is a safe procedure for both the mother and the fetus. Ultrasound does not use ionizing radiation, and there’s no evidence it harms developing fetuses.
While it can detect most major congenital heart defects, it might not catch all minor abnormalities. Its accuracy can depend on the fetus’s position, gestational age, and the equipment used.
If a defect is found, the information can help parents and doctors plan for the baby’s care after birth. In some cases, it may be possible to treat the condition while the baby is still in the womb.
While the primary purpose is to examine the heart, the baby’s sex might be visible during the examination. However, determining the baby’s sex isn’t the goal of this test and is also a crime leading to stringent criminal proceedings.
The procedure typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes but can vary based on the clarity of the images and the complexity of the heart’s anatomy.
Yes, a referral from your obstetrician or maternal-fetal medicine specialist is typically required, especially if your pregnancy is considered high risk.
