This study aims to evaluate the predictability of fetal Doppler parameters in terms of perinatal adverse outcomes in singleton pregnancies with mild and moderate idiopathic polyhydramnios
Pregnant women diagnosed with mild-moderate IP and randomly selected low-risk singleton pregnancies without polyhydramnios were included in the study one-on-one by matching their gestational ages. The diagnosis of polyhydramnios was made if the AFI was 24 cm and above.

In all cases, the measurement, including UA PI and MCA PI, was measured with a 6-4 MHz convex transabdominal probe. All measurements were made by an obstetrician (Ş.D.) with 28 years of experience. Doppler measurements were collected from the proximal third of the MCA and the free-floating segment of the umbilical cord, ensuring that the angle of insonation was as close to zero as feasible and that fetal movements were absent

perinatal outcome
adverse perinatal outcome: The week of birth and type of birth of all pregnant women participating in the study will be recorded. Premature birth rates and reasons for cesarean section will be questioned in all pregnant women. Birth weights of all neonates, 1st and 5th minute Apgar scores, and admissions to the neonatal intensive care unit will be recorded. Necessary statistical evaluation will be made in all healthy and polyhydramnios cases.
Time frame: 1 year
