We sought to characterize practices and attitudes of maternal-fetal medicine (MFM) and fetal care pediatric (FCP) specialists regarding fetal abnormalities.
This was a self-administered survey of 434 MFMs and FCPs (response rate: MFM 60.9%; FCP 54.2%).
For Down syndrome (DS), congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), spina bifida: MFMs were more likely than FCPs to support termination (DS 52% vs 35%, P < .001; CDH 49% vs 36%, P < .001; spina bifida 54% vs 35%, P < .001), and consider offering termination options as highly important (DS 90% vs 70%, P < .001; CDH 88% vs 69%, P < .001; spina bifida 88% vs 70%, P < .001). For DS only, MFMs were less likely than FCPs to think that pediatric specialist consultation should be offered prior to a decision regarding termination (54% vs 75%, P < .001). MFMs reported report higher termination rates among patients only for DS (DS 51% vs 21%, P < .001).
MFM and FCP specialists' counseling attitudes differ for fetal abnormalities.
我们旨在描述母胎医学(MFM)和胎儿护理儿科(FCP)专家在胎儿异常方面的实践和态度。
这是对 434 名 MFM 和 FCP(响应率:MFM 为 60.9%;FCP 为 54.2%)进行的自我管理调查。
对于唐氏综合征(DS)、先天性膈疝(CDH)、脊柱裂:MFM 比 FCP 更有可能支持终止妊娠(DS 为 52%比 35%,P<0.001;CDH 为 49%比 36%,P<0.001;脊柱裂为 54%比 35%,P<0.001),并认为提供终止妊娠选项非常重要(DS 为 90%比 70%,P<0.001;CDH 为 88%比 69%,P<0.001;脊柱裂为 88%比 70%,P<0.001)。仅对于 DS,MFM 比 FCP 更不可能认为在决定终止妊娠之前应该提供儿科专家咨询(54%比 75%,P<0.001)。MFM 报告说,只有 DS 的患者终止妊娠率更高(DS 为 51%比 21%,P<0.001)。
MFM 和 FCP 专家在胎儿异常方面的咨询态度存在差异。
