- Abstract
This article discusses the performance of first trimester screening for congenital heart disease (CHD) in a single tertiary center in Japan. The study analyzes the factors that may affect the detection rate of CHDs, including background factors (number of fetuses, maternal body mass index, fetal Crown-lump length, gestational age), disease factors (type of CHD, karyotype), and pregnancy outcomes. The results show that the detection rate for CHD was 64.1% and for major CHD was 85.7%. The study suggests that optimizing the images, such as filling the bladder and changing to a transvaginal approach, can improve the detection rate.
