Abstract

Abstract

Objective To explore the clinical significance of uterine artery and luteal flow Doppler parameters in pregnancy of uncertain viability. Methods A total of 64 women with pregnancy of uncertain viability in first trimester were selected as the research subjects. The uterine artery and luteal blood flow parameters were measured by transvaginal ultrasound. Based on the definite diagnosis after follow-up, non-viable intrauterine pregnancies were included in the study group, and viable intrauterine pregnancies were included in the control group. Results The mUAPI （2.16±0.50） and mUARI （0.82±0.07） in the non-viable pregnancy group were significantly lower than the mUAPI （2.93±0.48） and mUARI （0.89±0.05） in the viable pregnancy group, with statistically significant differences （P < 0.05）. The luteal blood flow PI （0.85±0.13） and RI （0.56±0.06） in the non-viable pregnancy group were significantly higher than the luteal blood flow PI （0.75±0.13）, luteal blood flow RI （0.50±0.06） in control group, with statistically significant （ P < 0.05）. Conclusion Uterine artery and corpus luteum blood flow Doppler parameters are useful for guiding clinical consultations in pregnancies of uncertain viability.
