The role of B-ultrasound examination schedule for pregnant women

We all know that pregnancy ultrasound is a must-do examination for every expectant mother. Many women do not understand the role of B-ultrasound and its schedule. In fact, it is very important to perform B-ultrasound examinations, and they must be performed within a certain time frame. At this time, the B-ultrasound examination schedule plays a significant role. Here we will introduce the role of the B-ultrasound examination schedule for pregnant women.

(1) The purpose of B-ultrasound examination during pregnancy. The purpose of B-ultrasound examination during pregnancy is to determine whether the fetal growth is in line with the gestational age, whether the fetus has any deformities, and whether the fetus is safe in the uterus. In addition, the purpose of examination at different times is also different. The early B-ultrasound examination is to determine whether the pregnancy is present, the location of the pregnancy and whether the size of the gestational sac is consistent with the time of amenorrhea, so as to provide a reliable basis for the estimation of the expected date of delivery and to promptly detect abnormalities in embryonic development; the purpose of the mid-pregnancy B-ultrasound examination is to observe whether there are any abnormalities in the development of various tissues and organs of the fetus, and to promptly detect fetal malformations, such as congenital heart disease, anencephaly, hydrocephalus, spina bifida, abdominal wall defect, short limbs, polycystic kidney, gastrointestinal atresia, etc.; the purpose of the late pregnancy B-ultrasound examination is to understand the safety of the fetus in the uterus and provide information for clinical treatment.

(2) Of course, this does not mean that pregnant women can undergo unlimited B-ultrasound examinations during pregnancy, because even if the impact of B-ultrasound on the fetus is extremely small, it is not completely without adverse reactions. Therefore, pregnant women should undergo appropriate B-ultrasound examinations according to the doctor's requirements.

(3) The situation of B-ultrasound during pregnancy should be determined according to the pregnancy situation. Generally, a B-ultrasound examination should be performed in the early stages of pregnancy. An appointment can be made about one week after the menstrual period to confirm whether the woman is pregnant and determine the number of days of pregnancy. It can also determine whether there is an ectopic pregnancy. The second B-ultrasound examination is scheduled between 4th and 5th month of pregnancy. The purpose is to understand whether the fetal development is consistent with the gestational age, observe the morphology and structure of the fetal organs, and rule out fetal malformations. After the seventh month of pregnancy, regular B-ultrasound examinations should be performed to determine the safety of the fetus in the uterus.

(4) If a pregnant woman suffers from certain diseases, ultrasound examination is even more important. In addition to understanding the growth and development of the fetus, you can also understand the impact of the disease on the fetus so that you can take timely measures. Therefore, the frequency and time of B-ultrasound examinations will be different from normal circumstances, and pregnant women should follow the doctor's arrangements.

Above we have given a detailed introduction to the role of the B-ultrasound time checklist for pregnant women. We believe that it will be of some help to pregnant women. They can better arrange the time for B-ultrasound examinations, conduct health examinations more scientifically, and ensure the safety of the fetus and the mother. If you want to know more or have any questions, you can go to a regular hospital to consult relevant experts in detail.
