Data ID 871
Factor IQR and GA at fetal testing-- predicted Cognition
Description We assessed associations between fetal heart rate parameters including interquartile range and s.d. of the fetal RR intervals and 18-month Bayley Scales of Infant Development-III scores using Pearson’s correlation coefficient.
Biomarker NA
Classification Z (combined factor - combined factor)

Application risk assessment
Objective We aimed to explore the correlation between fetal autonomic activity, measured by fetal heart rate variability, and 18-month developmental outcome in subjects with congenital heart disease.
p Value <0.001
Conclusion In fetuses with congenital heart disease, low heart rate variability at 34 to 38 weeks gestational age predicts diminished 18-month Cognitive and Motor performance. Prenatal autonomic activity may serve as a marker of early childhood development in these high-risk patients.
