evaluation of maternal cardiac function of pregnancy with iron deficiency anemia by transthoracic echocardiogram

Abstract

2 STUDY OBJECTIVES newline1.2.1 Broad Objective newlineThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of iron newlinedeficiency anemia on cardiac function during the 1 st, 2nd, and 3rd newlinetrimesters of pregnancy and to correlate echocardiogram parameters newlinewith ECG and hematological parameters in pregnant women with newlineand without iron deficiency anemia. newline1.2.2 Specific Objectives: newline1. To evaluate hematological parameters in both pregnant newlinewomen with and without iron deficiency anemia: newlineHemoglobin (Hb), Ferritin, Iron, and Total Iron Binding newlineCapacity (TIBC) newline2. To compare electrocardiographic findings in both newlinepregnant women with and without iron deficiency newlineanemia. newline3. To compare echocardiographic parameters [End Diastolic newlineDiameter (EDD), End Systolic Diameter (ESD), newlineFractional Shortening% (FS), Ejection fraction% (EF) and newlineStroke volume (SV)] in both pregnant women with and newlinewithout iron deficiency anemia. newline
