Prenatal Diagnosis and Intervention
We have one of the largest and most experienced maternal-fetal medicine teams in the country, with over half of all deliveries designated high risk or increased risk.
Our Carmen and John Thain Center for Prenatal Pediatrics is the only one of its kind in the metropolitan New York area offering comprehensive, multidisciplinary prenatal diagnosis and therapy in conjunction with pediatric subspecialty consultation.
When a heart defect is suspected in utero, we bring together a core team of high-risk obstetricians, neonatologists, fetal cardiology specialists, pediatric congenital heart surgeons, and other cardiac specialists. Working jointly with our colleagues in maternal-fetal medicine, we precisely diagnose the anomaly, develop a plan for close surveillance, and prepare for surgical intervention and the proper level of care at delivery, ultimately leading to improved outcomes.
In cases where fetal therapy is possible, such as for cardiac arrhythmia, collaboration with pediatric cardiologists can maximize our ability to improve fetal health while avoiding complications in the mother.
