Abstract

This meta-analysis investigated the diagnostic value of color ultrasound screening for fetal cardiovascular abnormalities during the second trimester in China. Four studies (151 patients with fetal cardiovascular abnormalities and 3397 undiagnosed controls) showed high sensitivity (0.91-0.96) and specificity (1.00). The Area Under the Curve (AUC) from the summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curves was >90%, indicating excellent diagnostic value. Color ultrasound during the second trimester is an excellent diagnostic tool for fetal cardiovascular abnormalities.
