The division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine at the University of Connecticut is an eight member academic faculty practice. As an integral component of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the University of Connecticut Health Center and School of Medicine, the division provides academic and clinical services in support of the mission of the institution. The academic goals of the program are to train post residency housestaff to become certified perinatologists, train residents to develop competent clinical skills in the evaluation and management of complicated pregnancies. This training also includes development of skill in performing obstetric ultrasound and diagnostic amniocentesis. We teach medical students basic clinical obstetric pathophysiology during their non-clerkship years and the fundamentals of clinical perinatology during their clerkship rotations. The training of fellows and residents is done in an integrated fashion. The clinical perinatal team is a composite of a maternal-fetal medicine attending, fellow, senior and junior residents and medical students on rotation. The division members are actively engaged in patient-oriented research in areas of maternal-fetal medicine pertaining to prenatal diagnosis, obstetrical ultrasound, HIV infection during pregnancy, clinical obstetrics.
