Infants with Prenatally Diagnosed Anomalies Special Approaches to Preparation and Resuscitation CLINICS IN PERINATOLOGY Colby, C. E., Carey, W. A., Blumenfeld, Y. J., Hintz, S. R. 2012; 39 (4): 871-887

Abstract

When a fetal anomaly is suspected, a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis, counseling, pregnancy management, surveillance, delivery planning, and neonatal care is critical to creating a comprehensive management plan. This article provides a basic framework for integrating prenatal diagnostic and maternal-fetal care considerations, delivery planning, special resuscitation needs, and immediate and later neonatal care and evaluation into developing a thoughtful management plan for infants with prenatally diagnosed complex anomalies including congenital heart disease, intrathoracic masses, fetal airway obstruction, neural tube defects, abdominal wall defects, and skeletal dysplasia.
