Role of Fetal Thigh Circumference in Estimation of Birth Weight by Ultrasound
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the accuracy and usefulness of predicting birth weight by measuring fetal thigh circumference by ultrasound. METHODS: In 110 pregnant women, fetuses without structural or chromosomal anomalies were studied prospectively and cross-sectionally. Thigh circumference (TC) was determined at the mid level of the thigh. Biparietal diameter (BPD), Head circumference (HC), Abdomina...

متن کاملa new formula for estimated fetal weight: the impression of biparietal diameter, abdominal circumference, mid-thigh soft tissue thickness and femoral length on birth weight
background: abdominal circumference (ac), biparietal diameters (bpd) and femoral length (fl) are now the main parameters used to obtain estimated fetal weight (efw). although the role of soft tissue parameters in determining fetal weight was proved but clinical attention to mid-thigh soft tissue thickness (stt) is limited. objective: to find the impression of stt on birth weight (bw) and repres...
متن کاملRelationship of mothers' fasting during pregnancy and fetal birth weight
Introduction: Fasting is a commitment to God, therefore many pregnant women have a tendency to perform it, but they are concerns about its possible complications which may affect fetal health. Objective: This study aimed to determine the relationship between fasting on pregnant women and their fetal birth weight. Method: This study was conducted on pregnant women referring to maternity hospital...
متن کاملEstimation of Fetal Weight by Clinical Methods and Ultrasonography and Comparing With Actual Birth Weight
Introduction: Assessment of fetal weight is a vital factor in antenatal care, not only in the management of labor and delivery but also in identifying fetal weight disorders. Objective: This study compares the accuracy of clinical methods and ultrasonography in Estimating Fetal Weight (EFW) with Actual Birth Weight (ABW) in term pregnant women. Materials and Methods: This diagnostic test eval...
