Antenatal screening for intrauterine growth retardation with umbilical artery Doppler ultrasonography.
To assess the usefulness of continuous wave Doppler ultrasonography as an antenatal screening tool for the detection of intrauterine growth retardation and fetal compromise 2097 singleton pregnancies were studied. Umbilical artery velocity waveforms were obtained at 28, 34, and 38 weeks of gestation, from which the pulsatility index, A/B ratio, and resistance parameter were calculated. No abnor...

It results in newborns that have not attained their full growth potential and are already malnourished at birth. Fetuses that suffer from growth retardation have higher perinatal morbidity and mortality and are more likely to experience poor cognitive development and neurologic impairment during ch...
متن کاملIntrauterine Growth Retardation - A Review Article
Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is defined as fetal growth less than the normal growth potential of a specific infant because of genetic or environmental factors. The terms IUGR and Small for Gestational Age (SGA) are often used alternatively to describe the same problem, although there exists subtle differences between the two. The burden of IUGR is concentrated mainly in Asia which acc...
متن کاملIntrauterine growth retardation and puberty in girls.
Some, albeit not all studies on the relationship between intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) and female pubertal development have found an earlier and rapidly progressing puberty as well as concomitant disorders of related functional systems such as polycystic ovary syndrome and short stature. These pubertal changes are part of a growing list of IUGR-related diseases, which includes non-insu...
