RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: This study, conducted in high-risk pregnancies with placental insufficiency, aims to avaliate blood flow in the fetal left portal vein (LPV), umbilical vein (UV) and ductus venosus (DV), and establish which parameters are associated with acidemia at birth. METHOD: A prospective research involving 58 pregnant women, classified according to the presence or absence of the diagnosis of fetal acidosis at birth, according to pH in the blood of the umbilical artery, consisting of: Group I: 26 cases (acidemia, pH <7,20) and Group II: 32 cases (normal pH, pH 7,20). Exclusion criteria were patients who had postnatal diagnosis of abnormality of the newborn and those in which the pH measurement was not obtained at birth. The following Doppler variables of LPV and UV were compared between the groups: TAMxV (Time Averaged Maximum Velocity) (cm/s) zeta-score, Q/kg (blood flow per kg of fetal weight) (ml/min/kg) and presence of pulsatility; and DV pulsality index for veins (PIV) zetascore. RESULTS: LPV TAMxV zeta-score (rho=0.392, P=0.002) and Q/kg (rho=0.274, P=0.037), DV PIV zeta-score (rho=-0.377, P=0.004) and UV Q/kg (rho=0.261, P=0.048) showed significant correlation with pH at birth. Performing the multivariate logistic regression analysis, the independent variables that remained in the final model were: TAMxV of LPV zeta-score (OR=0.41; IC95% 0.25 a 0.71; P=0.001) and reverse flow in LPV (OR=0.004; IC95% 0.00 a 0.15; P=0.003), both showing a protective effect to reduce the risk of acidemia. With this model, it was found that 74,1% of cases are correctly classified to birth acidemia. CONCLUSION: by analysis of fetal venous Doppler in placental insufficiency we found that acidemia at birth (pH <7.20) is independently associated with reverse flow in the LPV and LPV TAMxV z-score, both showing a protective effect with reduced risk for the event
