Table 1.
Table summarizing trial number, week of the trial, animal number, fetal position, need for laparotomy, and the time required to navigate the needle to the correct position in the left ventricle. The original computer-assisted navigation investigation involved 24 trials. Of these, 8 were done “freehand, ” that is, without computer-assisted navigation. These 8 trials are used in the current analysis.
