The Predictive Accuracy of Prenatal Ultrasound for Macrosomia—A Retrospective Cohort Study

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Third‐trimester fetal weight estimation has limited predictive accuracy for neonatal macrosomia (low sensitivity and PPV) but may influence clinical decisions as it is strongly associated with labor induction. Prenatal macrosomia diagnosis should therefore be cautiously interpreted. ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of third‐
