Fetal Echo

What is a Fetal Echo?

A Fetal Echocardiogram is a specialized ultrasound that examines the structure and function of an unborn baby’s heart. It is typically performed between 18 to 24 weeks of pregnancy.

At Heart Care Clinic, Dr. Amar Upadhyay uses advanced fetal echo technology to detect congenital heart defects early, ensuring proper planning and care before and after delivery.

Why is it Important?

Fetal Echo helps identify abnormalities in fetal heart development, rhythm issues, and structural defects. Early detection allows for informed decision-making and coordination of treatment at birth if needed.

Who Should Consider It?

Pregnant women with a family history of congenital heart disease, diabetes, abnormal ultrasound findings, or those on specific medications should consider a fetal echo for reassurance and early detection.
