Mortality and Morbidity of Fetal Growth Retardation

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1981
Summary: This study reports the fetal outcome in 500 pregnancies when the baby weighed less than the 10th centile for gestational age at birth, compared with that in a series of 500 pregnancies where there was a normal weight for gestation. Fetal growth retardation (0‐9th centile) had a significant positive association with perinatal mortality (5.2 ...

Fetal Breathing Patterns in Intrauterine Growth Retardation

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1979
SummaryFetal breathing movements were studied with real time ultrasound in 21 normal fetuses and 30 fetuses born small‐for‐dates (less than the 5th centile). The events of the study period were recorded on punched paper tape which was subjected to computer analysis. In the normal group the percentage time of breathing was 54±12.7 (meanSD).

Fetal alpha‐fetoprotein concentration in growth retardation

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 1989
Raised maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in the absence of fetal malformations has been associated with adverse pregnancy outcome such as low birthweight and intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) (Nelson et al. 1987). Although impaired placental function predisposing to fetomaternal haemorrhage is the suggested mechanism increased fetal ...

Fetal cardiac function in intrauterine growth retardation

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1991
Blood-flow velocity waveforms are altered in several peripheral vascular beds of fetuses whose intrauterine growth is retarded because of placental insufficiency. We investigated these concomitant changes in cardiac function. Color and pulsed Doppler echocardiographic recordings were performed in 124 fetuses with intrauterine growth retardation.

Fetal Growth Retardation

1993
Fetal growth retardation remains an important problem in obstetrics and gynecology in the 1990s. In recent years, studies of this subject have grown considerably. Improvements in new technology for prenatal fetal diagnosis, such as ultrasound and Doppler studies, genetic evaluations, and fetal umbilical blood sampling, have contributed tremendously to ...

Intrauterine Fetal Growth Retardation

1981
There has been an awareness throughout the history of civilization that runting may occur in various animal species, particularly those of a polytocous reproductive nature. However, it was only three decades ago that McBurney helped focus attention on the problem of human fetal growth retardation with his manuscript entitled The Undernourished Full ...

POSTNATAL BONE GROWTH OF INFANTS WITH FETAL GROWTH RETARDATION

Pediatrics, 1967
Infants with fetal growth retardation, diagnosed by a birth weight less than the 10th percentile for gestational age, had shorter fibulas and retarded development of epiphyses at the knee, measured from radiographs, when compared to infants with normal weight for gestational age.

Fetal Growth Retardation After Gastric Banding

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1990
A 35‐year‐old woman became pregnant 15 months after gastric banding, during which time she lost 55 kg in weight. During the third trimester, severe vomiting was noted and she lost a further 6 kg. Ultrasound examination showed oligohydramnions and fetal growth retardation of 38%.

Treatment of fetal growth retardation

1989
In the management of pregnancies with small for gestational age (SGA) fetuses the main aim is to distinguish between normal small fetuses, not at increased risk of perinatal death or chronic handicap, and fetuses that are growth retarded due to uteroplacental or fetal insufficiency.
