About this document
Fetal Circulation Made Easy by mangeshkhedkarr is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The placenta is a vital organ in pregnancy that supplies oxygen and nutrients to the fetus while removing waste. Fetal circulation bypasses the lungs using three shunts: ductus venosus, foramen ovale, and ductus arteriosus, allowing oxygenated blood to flow efficiently to the developing fetus. Key structures involved include the umbilical vein, which carries oxygen-rich blood, and the aorta, which distributes it to the body.
