Middle cerebral artery Doppler in prediction degree of fetal anemia and the best timing for the second intrauterine intravascular transfusion in red cell alloimmune disease.
AIM: To determine the role of fetal multiples of the median of middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MoM MCA-PSV), predicts the rate of decline in fetal hematocrit (Hct) for determination of the best timing for the second intrauterine intravascular transfusion (IUIVT) in fetuses with Rh alloimmunisation.
MATERIALS AND METHOD: Retrospective study of 59-monofetal alloimmunized pregnancies from 2005 to 2012 that underwent first and second IUIVT were assessed in Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Belgrade, Serbia.
RESULT: There was an inverse statistically significant correlation between measurements MCA MoM-1 and fetal Hct-1 before the first IUIVT r = -0.622; p = 0.001 and MCA-MoM-3 and Hct-3 before the second IUIVT r = -0.381; p = 0.001, also as the significant correlation between the interval between both procedures (expressed in day) and measurement MCA-MoM-3, before the second IUIVT r = -0.284; p = 0.029.
CONCLUSION: The measurements MoM-MCA before every IUIVT can be useful for prediction of the best timing for the next IUIVT.
