Ultrasound Biometry and Fetal Growth Restriction
With the ascendancy of biophysical assessment with Doppler velocimetry, and the establishment of routine scan dating in early pregnancy, there needs to be a radical re-think of the role of ultrasound biometry in the de®nition and assessment of fetal growth restriction (FGR). Doppler ̄ow velocimetry of the umbilical artery has proven its value in de®ning the FGR fetus. It is more useful than card...
متن کاملExtrinsic Factors Influencing Fetal Deformations and Intrauterine Growth Restriction
The causes of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) are multifactorial with both intrinsic and extrinsic influences. While many studies focus on the intrinsic pathological causes, the possible long-term consequences resulting from extrinsic intrauterine physiological constraints merit additional consideration and further investigation. Infants with IUGR can exhibit early symmetric or late asym...
متن کاملLocally derived traffic-related air pollution and fetal growth restriction: a retrospective cohort study.
BACKGROUND Fetal growth restriction has been inconsistently associated with maternal exposure to elevated levels of traffic-related air pollution. OBJECTIVE We investigated the relationship between an individualised measure of fetal growth and maternal exposure to a specific marker for traffic-related air pollution. METHODS We estimated maternal residential exposure to a marker for traffic-...
متن کاملEvaluation of Abdominal Fetal Electrocardiography in Early Intrauterine Growth Restriction
Objectives: This descriptive study was performed to evaluate the capability of a non-invasive transabdominal electrocardiographic system to extract clear fetal electrocardiographic (FECG) measurements from intrauterine growth restricted (IUGR) fetuses and to assess whether abdominal FECG parameters can be developed as markers for evaluating the fetal cardiac status in IUGR. Methods: Transabdomi...
متن کاملThe importance of fetal gender in intrauterine growth restriction
UNLABELLED One of the most important causes of perinatal mortality and morbidity complicating significant percentage pregnancies is intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). Fetal growth restriction is the main cause of intrauterine fetal death and the second leading cause of death in the neonatal period. Numerous studies in different populations reveal an association between intrauterine growth ...
