Study Summary
Cardiac disease in children may start early in life and evidence of cardiac disease can be seen during prenatal life. A variety of diseases diagnosed during fetal life can put children at risk for cardiac disease. The accurate assessment of cardiac function is important in these patients. A type of imaging scan called "fetal echocardiogram" is used to measure the contractility or squeeze of the heart. The fetal echocardiogram is a painless test and completely non-invasive. This study aims to recruit women and fetuses to determine if this imaging scan can be used throughout the pregnancy to measure heart squeeze and develop normal values to help doctors better diagnose fetuses who may have cardiac disease before they are born.
Primary Outcome
Determine the inter-observer variability of our imaging and analysis protocol for the measurement of fetal myocardial deformation throughout gestation and after birth. The investigator will use the paired t-test to compare differences in measurement between the two observers at each time point.
