| Factor | association between DV-PIV (median of Mo95th) with mortality of abnormalities affecting predominantly the right ventricle |
| Description | DV-PIV=the pulsatility index for veins (PIV) of ductus venosus (DV) |
| Biomarker | NA |
| Classification | Z (combined factor - combined factor) |

| Application | risk assessment and prognosis |
| Objective | To investigate whether pulsatility of ductus venosus (DV) flow velocity waveforms is of diagnostic value in predicting survival in fetuses with congenital heart disease (CHD). |
| p Value | 0.043 |
| Conclusion | Evaluation of the DV pulsatility is a useful additional variable for predicting the risk for mortality in fetuses with isolated structural CHD, in particular in fetuses with defects of the AV septum and with defects affecting predominantly right ventricular function. As there is no fetal hydrops without abnormal DV, this is another sign for the association of DV and cardiac failure. |
