Popis: OBJECTIVE: We aimed to assess the feasibility of assessing the fetal right Myocardial Performance Index (RMPI) using single waveform and to compare absolute values with dual technique. METHODS: We studied 145 morphologically normal appropriately grown fetuses at 16–28 weeks’ gestation with local Ethics Committee approval using fixed machine settings: Doppler sweep velocity at 15 cm/s; angle of insonation
