Abstract
Objectives Compared with normal fetuses, fetuses with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) have smaller brain volumes and are at higher risk of brain injury, possibly due to diminished cerebral blood flow and oxygen content. By increasing cerebral oxygen delivery, maternal hyperoxygenation (MH) might improve brain development and reduce the risk of brain injury in these fetuses. This study investigated whether gestational age and baseline...
