Abstrakt: This article, published in the journal Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology, presents a study conducted at BCNatal to evaluate a prediction model for neonatal valvuloplasty in cases of fetal pulmonary valve stenosis. The study used 2D echocardiography and speckle tracking echocardiography to analyze echocardiographic parameters and identify predictors of early intervention. The results showed that a scoring system combining the ductus venosus pulsatility index centile, right ventricle global longitudinal strain, reversed flow in the ductus arteriosus, and significant tricuspid regurgitation could predict the need for neonatal valvuloplasty with a sensitivity of 91.7% and specificity of 100%. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings. [Extracted from the article]
