Registry for echocardiographic screening in pregnant women

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This registry enrolls obstetric patients attending routine antenatal visits to assess cardiovascular health during pregnancy. A standardized 2D transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) protocol is utilized to evaluate heart function, including measurements of ejection fraction and left ventricular outflow tract gradients. Patients identified with significant cardiovascular issues are referred for further management at a specialized clinic. The study aims to enhance understanding of cardiovascular diseases in pregnant women and improve outcomes through early detection.
