Comparison between the single deepest pocket and amniotic fluid index in predicting fetal distress in small‐for‐gestational age fetuses

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1997
Background. The relationship between reduced amniotic fluid volume and increased risk of fetal distress in small‐for‐gestational age fetuses is not yet clear. Furthermore, the criteria used for the diagnosis of ‘oligohydramnios’ are different between the

Prevalence and associated factors of oligohydramnios in pregnancies beyond 36 weeks of gestation at a tertiary hospital in southwestern Uganda

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2022
Background Oligohydramnios is associated with poor maternal and perinatal outcomes. In low-resource countries, including Uganda, oligohydramnios is under-detected due to the scarcity of ultrasonographic services.

Correlation of amniotic fluid index with fetomaternal outcome

, 2021
Background: Amniotic fluid acts like a protective cover around the baby. Advances in ultrasound have increased early detection of abnormal amniotic fluid volumes.

Perinatal outcome of term pregnancies with borderline amniotic fluid index: a prospective case control study

, 2020
Background: It has been since antiquity that the importance of amniotic fluid and fetal growth with perinatal outcome is being documented. But the lacunae lies in studying the relationship between borderline amniotic fluid and perinatal outcome.
