THE VALUE OF PONDERAL INDEX AS A PROGNOSTIC FACTOR IN PREDICTING COMPLICATIONS IN TERM NEONATES
Rohrer's ponderal index in newborns (birth weight * 100/height3) has been used as an indicator of fetal growth status, especially to assess asymmetrical intrauterine growth retardation. Low ponderal index or disproportionate intrauterine growth retardation has higher neonatal morbidity and there are some specific guidelines in intrauterine growth retarded infants to control some of their pr...
متن کاملPlacental changes in idiopathic intrauterine growth restriction
Abstract Introduction Placenta is the maternal–foetal contact zone. The placentas of ‘idiopathic’ intrauterine growth retardation babies may hold the key to the aetiology of growth restriction. It was noted by most workers that in cases of intrauterine growth retardation placentas, there were some abnormal positions of insertion of umbilical cords, placental weight and volume was significantly ...
متن کاملIntrauterine growth retardation in livestock: Implications, mechanisms and solutions
Intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) is a significant problem in livestock production. It adversely affects neonatal survival, postnatal growth performance, efficiency of feed utilization, tissue composition (including protein, fat and minerals), meat quality, long-term health of offspring, and adult onset of disease. Genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors (including nutrition), as wel...
متن کاملNutritional Problems and Catch-Up Growth in Infants with Intrauterine Growth Retardation
In the past, it was common practice to relate low birthweight to prematurity. However, a number of environmental, maternal, placental, and fetal factors have been recognized as causing intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) in babies who are small-for-gestational-age (SGA). In the more affluent societies, one-third of the low birthweight babies are SGA. Yet in communities where protein-energy m...
متن کاملIntrauterine growth retardation.
The recognition that some low birthweight babies (<2500 g) were the victims of intrauterine growth retardation rather than premature birth was a milestone in perinatal medicine.'3 Up to 10% of all liveborn babies and at least 30% of those of low birth weight suffer from intrauterine growth retardation; their perinatal mortality is four to 10 times higher than that of normally grown babies-both ...
