News Update, February 27, 2012
The Maternal Fetal Medicine Foundation (MFMF) was formed in 2005 and in turn instituted the Nuchal
Translucency Quality Review (NTQR). Effective January 1, 2012 the MFMF became the Perinatal Quality
Foundation (perinatalquality.org). The NTQR program (ntqr.org) will not change and will be joined by
other initiatives. The Examiner will continue to focus on first trimester risk assessment and the NTQR
program but will also include items of interest related to new developments in obstetrical care.
The mission of the Perinatal Quality Foundation is to improve the quality of Maternal Fetal Medicine
medical services by providing state of the art educational programs, and evidence-based, statistically
valid monitoring systems to evaluate current practices and facilitate the transition of emerging
technologies into clinical care.
The Perinatal Quality Foundation web portal will remain as a gateway for future maternal-fetal
initiatives.
