We demonstrated evidence of reduced DO2 and VO2 due to
placental insufficiency in a fetus with aortic
coarctation and clinical evidence of fetal distress with
associated hypoxic brain injury that was undetected by
routine clinical monitoring. An unexpected finding was
the lower placental oxygen delivery in fetuses with CHD,
which could be due to abnormal placental development and
function in the setting of CHD.
