Insuficiencia placentaria - Symptom

Nombres alternativos

Disfunción placentaria

Síntomas:

Una mujer con insuficiencia placentaria normalmente no tiene ningún síntoma.

Signos y exámenes:

Una mujer embarazada debe recibir el cuidado prenatal apropiado. El médico medirá el tamaño de su útero (matriz) en crecimiento en cada visita, empezando aproximadamente en la mitad del embarazo.

Los exámenes que pueden hacerse abarcan:

  • Ecografía del embarazo para medir el crecimiento del bebé (puede hacerse con más frecuencia que en un embarazo normal)
  • Monitoreo de la frecuencia cardíaca del bebé (cardiotocografía en reposo)

A usted le pueden pedir que lleve un registro diario de la frecuencia con que el bebé se mueve o patea.
