First-Trimester Ultrasound Assessment of Velamentous Cord Insertion (1T-VCI)
Prospective Study of First-Trimester Ultrasound Direct Visualisation of Velamentous Cord Insertion
The goal of this observational study is to learn whether a short ultrasound assessment during the routine first-trimester pregnancy scan can identify velamentous cord insertion, an abnormal location where the umbilical cord joins the placenta. The study will include pregnant participants aged 18 years or older with a singleton pregnancy who attend first-trimester combined screening between 11+0 and 13+6 weeks of pregnancy.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- How often can the placental cord-insertion site be successfully classified within a 3-minute assessment?
- How accurately does first-trimester ultrasound identify velamentous cord insertion compared with examination of the placenta after delivery?
Participants will:
- Attend their usual first-trimester ultrasound examination.
- Have an additional transabdominal ultrasound assessment of the placental cord-insertion site after the routine scan, taking no more than 3 minutes.
- Allow the study team to review relevant pregnancy and birth records.
- If they deliver at the study hospital, allow examination of the placenta after delivery as part of the study reference standard.

Részletes leírás
Participants with singleton pregnancies attending first-trimester combined screening between 11+0 and 13+6 weeks will be invited to participate. The research-specific placental cord-insertion assessment will be performed after completion of routine clinical care and will not replace or alter standard ultrasound assessment. The insertion will be initially classified as normal, VCI, or undetermined.
VCI or undetermined examinations will undergo repeat ultrasound assessment in the same setting or within 1 week by maternal-fetal-medicine team, transvaginal ultrasound may be considered to facilitate visualization. If an abnormal insertion is confirmed, subsequent care, including repeat assessment and transvaginal ultrasound for vasa previa where clinically indicated, will follow existing practice.
For participants who deliver at the study hospital, available placentas will undergo blinded structured postnatal gross examination and standardized photographic documentation. The final postnatal placental classification, reviewed by an assessor blinded to antenatal ultrasound classifications and neonatal outcome, will serve as the reference standard for the primary diagnostic-accuracy analysis.

Tanulmányi populáció
The study population comprises pregnant participants aged 18 years or older with singleton pregnancies who attend routine first-trimester combined screening at Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital Hong Kong between 11+0 and 13+6 weeks of gestation. Participants must have capacity to provide written informed consent. Individuals with multiple pregnancies and those who decline or withdraw consent will not be included. All enrolled participants will undergo the same focused, research-specific transabdominal ultrasound assessment of the placental cord-insertion site after completion of their routine clinical screening examination.

Singleton pregnancies undergoing first-trimester placental cord-insertion assessment
Consenting pregnant participants aged 18 years or older with singleton pregnancies attending first-trimester combined screening at Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital Hong Kong at 11+0 to 13+6 weeks gestation. Following routine screening, participants undergo a focused transabdominal placental cord-insertion assessment of up to 3 additional minutes, with review or repeat assessment according to the prespecified pathway where needed. |
