Detailed Description

The study will focus in evaluation of fetal cardiac function by using myocardial performance index in fetuses with abnormal cardiotocography in 3rd trimester.

Study Hypothesis:

In women with non reassuring fetal cardiotocography, myocardial performance index may predict fetal distress accurately.

Study Question:

In pregnant women in the third trimester with abnormal cardiotocography, Does myocardial performance index predict fetal distress accurately?

Study Objectives:

This study aims to assess the accuracy of myocardial performance index in predicting fetal distress in pregnant women with non reassuring cardiotocography in third trimester.
