Among the causes that lead to antenatal affliction of the fetus, namely its hypoxia, hypotrophy, ante- and intranatal distress, is placental dysfunction (PD). Perinatal mortality in PDs is 10.3‰ in newborn infants, 49 ‰ – in preterm infants. Perinatal morbidity with PD reaches 70‰, and mortality rate – 20%. Objective. To investigate the functional state of the fetoplacental complex (FPС) in pregnant women with PD. Material and methods. The functional status of the FPC in 104 patients with PD (main group) and in 136 women with uncomplicated pregnancy and delivery (control group) using ultrasound placentalography, Dopplerometry was examined. Research results. The ultrasound characteristics of the placental dysfunction were the following: discrepancy between the degree of maturity of the placenta of the gestation period, true thickening of the placenta, its hypoplasia, reduction of echogenicity of the placenta, oligohydramnios. Dopplerometric signs of disorder of the utero-placental blood flow were high peripheral vascular resistance, both in dominant and in subdominant UA, asymmetry of blood flow in UA. Hemodynamics of fetal-placental circulation against the ground of PD was characterized by a decrease in the final diastolic blood flow velocity, which was manifested by an increase resistance in the peripheral vascular of the fetal part of the placenta,  decrease in placental coefficient. The peculiarity of fetal blood flow in pregnant women with PD was the decrease in the mean value of vascular resistance indices in the middle cerebral artery of the fetus and a significant decrease in the cerebral-umbilical index. Conclusions. In pregnant women with placental dysfunction hemodynamic changes in the utero-placental complex are associated with decrease in the intensity of placental-fetal blood flow and in 16.3% of cases by centralization of the fetal circulation. Timely Dopplerometry is important both in the diagnosis of the compensatory capabilities of the FPK, and during determination of reasonable suggested obstetrical tactics.
