Increased accuracy of fetal weight estimation with a gender-specific weight formula.
OBJECTIVE To test whether Schild's sex-specific formula for estimating fetal weight is more accurate than commonly used regression formulae. METHODS The gender-specific formula and 10 widely used equations were evaluated in a group of 989 pregnancies. Each fetus underwent ultrasound examination with complete biometric parameters within 7 days before delivery. RESULTS Over the whole weight r...
متن کاملEstimation of Fetal Weight
Both low birth weight and excessive fetal weight at delivery are associated with an increased risk of newborn complications during labor and the puerperium. The perinatal complications associated with low birth weight are attributable to preterm delivery, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), or both. For excessively large fetuses, the potential complications associated with delivery include ...

متن کاملScreening for Macrosomia at Term: Performances of Ultrasonographic Estimation of the Fetal Weight and the Use of the Uterine Height
Methods: It is a retrospective study of 233 patients whose newborn macrosomes were sampled. The estimated fetal weight (EFW) ultrasound was performed during the 41th week of amenorrhea, as the EFW by measuring waist circumference with the Warsof ’s formula and EFW by measuring the uterine height according to the kayem’s formula. These 3 estimates were corrected taking into account the growth ef...
متن کاملSonographic estimation of fetal weight in term pregnant women
Introduction: Deviation from normal fetal weight and growth contribute to morbidity and mortality in the perinatal period. Over 50 formulas for EFW (estimated fetal weight) have been published and yet the ideal formula has not been determined. The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of sonographic estimation of fetal weight using Hadlock formula in comparison to birth weight....
