About this study
Official title: The Value of Doppler Indices Of Middle Cerebral Artery For Prediction Of Fetal Outcome In Pregnant Women With Anemia
can we predict neonatal outcome by the results of 3rd trimester MCA Doppler Indices In pregnant women with anemia?? --- the aim of this study is to evaluate values of MCA Doppler indices in determining fetal outcome in pregnant women with anemia.
Read the detailed description
This Cross_ sectional study will be performed At OBS/ GYN Department Sohag University Hospital for 1 year duration between February 2025 to February 2026.
All cases of pregnant women diagnosed with anemia at 3rd trimester will have baseline assessment of history, clinical examination, HB level, obstetric ultrasonography done then they will have Middle Cerebral Artery Doppler done to assess correlation between MCA Doppler indices \& neonatal outcomes. Then appropriate treatment of anemia will be taken.
Doppler indices and placental weight.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Anemia During Pregnancy and Anemia Complicating Pregnancy, run by Sohag University at 1 site in Egypt.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Aug 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Third Trimester Middle Cerebral artery Doppler ( MCA -PSV). (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Aug 2025.
