Abstract

Background: Doppler ultrasound velocimetry of umbilical and foetal vessels has become established method of antenatal monitoring, allowing non-invasive assessment of foetal circulation. Aims: To compare role of middle cerebral artery and umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry studies in normal uncomplicated pregnancies and post-dated pregnancies. Materials and Methods: A comparative study was conducted on 130 pregnant women having gestational age of 36 weeks or more who came to the labor ward in reference study period of 1 year in Burdwan Medical College. Study group consists of 65 pregnant women with gestational age of 40-42 weeks while control groups with gestational age of 36-40 weeks. USG Doppler studies were done, APGAR score of neonates were calculated at 1min and 5 min. Comparison of all variables were done using by a software package SPSS 16. Results: No statistically significant difference was noted in Doppler indices (except CPR) in pregnancy with normal and adverse perinatal outcome. 27.6% of mothers of 40-42 weeks had adverse perinatal outcome where as 100% mother of 36-40 weeks
