foetal circulation
Foetal circulation refers to the circulatory system of a foetus, which is different compared to after birth due to the existence of the placenta through which the foetus receives oxygen and nutrients from the mother. This system includes special structures like the umbilical cord, ductus venosus, foramen ovale, and ductus arteriosus, that help bypass certain body parts not yet in use, such as the lungs and liver. Foetal circulation changes immediately after birth as the newborn begins to breathe independently and the special structures gradually close off.
