“…Women included in the aforementioned studies relied on establishing a diagnosis of fetal anaemia through amniocentesis, invasive fetal blood sampling or late ultrasound features of hydrops fetalis. MCA PSV has now been demonstrated to be a highly sensitive non‐invasive means for determining the degree of anaemia 26–28 …”

“…If titer has increased, but MCA-PSV is less than 1.5 MOM, patient is still managed with weekly MCA-PSV measurement. Using cut-off of 1.5 MOM, fetuses with moderate to severe anemia are identified with a positive predictive value of 65 %, negative predictive value of 100 % and false positive rate of 12 % [27].…”

“…2 Surge entonces la necesidad imperiosa de un examen no invasivo, económico y de fácil realización con el fin de mejorar la capacidad diagnóstica, y por ende, la posibilidad de un tratamiento oportuno. 4 Por lo tanto, el conocimiento de nuevas técnicas diagnósticas debe ser de carácter obligatorio para el médico responsable del control prenatal de modo que se encuentre en capacidad de definir el momento en el cual debe solicitarlas y cuándo la paciente debe ser valorada por el especialista. 5,6 El propósito de este documento es, por consiguiente, revisar la exactitud de los métodos de tamizaje y de diagnóstico temprano como también la efectividad de los métodos de tratamiento no invasivos e invasivos.…”
