[II-IL13] Predictors of outcome in fetuses with congenital heart disease

○Lynne Nield (Sunnybrook Health Sciences Center, Michael Garron Hospital, The Hospital for Sick Children, Canada)

The presentation will outline the challenges and pitfalls of predicting postnatal outcomes in fetuses diagnosed with congenital heart disease. I will review current predictors of outcomes, including fetal echocardiographic and clinical measurements. The presentation will focus on a particularly challenging cohort of fetuses, those with borderline left ventricles, and those with possible coarctation of the aorta, with a series of case vignettes.
