Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial Must have
Group D: Fetuses with hypoplastic left sided structures or at risk of coarctation of the aorta and any of the following: Any mitral annulus, aortic annulus, left ventricular end-diastolic dimension, or aortic diameter z-score less than or equal to 2.0; Right-left ventricular size discrepancy with no other explanation of discrepancy; Continuous Doppler flow in the aortic arch concerning for coarctation; Significantly less aortic flow than pulmonary artery flow; Severe atrial septal aneurysm with possible obstruction of mitral valve flow; Left superior vena cava to coronary sinus with dilated coronary sinus; Retrograde blood flow in the aortic arch from the ductus arteriosus; Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) and variants of HLHS; Total anomalous pulmonary venous return

MHO Trial Summary
This trial tested a new type of treatment that could help infants with LHH.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for pregnant women with normal ultrasounds or those whose fetuses have specific heart issues like left heart hypoplasia, at risk of aortic coarctation, or related conditions. It's not for mothers with multiple pregnancies, certain health problems (like severe hypertension), or poor ultrasound images.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if giving extra oxygen to the mother can help babies who might be born with small left-sided heart structures. Mothers breathe in more oxygen and doctors check if it improves the baby's heart condition before birth.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While maternal hyperoxygenation is generally considered safe, potential side effects are not detailed here. Typically, increased oxygen levels could lead to changes in blood flow or oxidative stress but would be closely monitored.
