If expectant mothers discover problems with the fetus's heart during the examination, doctors are likely to advise parents to give up the child. At this time, expectant mothers naturally want to know the reasons for the poor heart condition of the fetus. So, how is the fetal heart problem caused?
The reason why fetuses have poor heart function is that during the process of embryonic development, there are obstacles or developmental abnormalities in the heart or large blood vessels, which can lead to abnormal heart structure in the child. This may also cause the child's heart channel to fail to close after birth, which can cause the child to be troubled by congenital heart disease.
In addition, poor fetal heart may also be related to the environment. If medication is taken during pregnancy, or if there is a viral infection during pregnancy, or if the fetus is in an area with severe environmental pollution or radiation, it may lead to abnormal heart development.
If abnormalities are found in the fetal heart during the examination, it is necessary to handle them according to the severity of the heart problem. For example, some strong echoes in the fetal heart may be detected, which are actually some soft indicators of ultrasound. In this case, prenatal examinations such as non-invasive DNA testing can be performed. If there are issues with other systems, prenatal diagnosis such as amniocentesis is necessary.
