Relationship of Glycosylated Hemoglobin, Fetal Macrosomia, and Birthweight Macrosomia
American Journal of Perinatology, 1994Previous studies have shown that glycosylated hemoglobin (Hb A1C) once elevated correlated with fetal malformations, poor perinatal outcome, and macrosomia. To determine whether Hb A1C was related to fetal diabetic complications such as polyhydramnois, fetal macrosomia, and fat line detected on ultrasonographic evaluation, 66 diabetic patient, types I,

Detection and Prevention of Macrosomia
Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America, 2007It is overly simplistic to try to identify optimal glycemic thresholds, fetal growth characteristics, and methods of detection in the prevention of fetal overgrowth and its attendant morbidities that can be applied to all pregnancies. We can only hope that, as our understanding of the pathophysiology of diabetes in pregnancy grows, we can "fine-tune ...

We describe the maternal characteristics in pregnancy with fetal macrosomia, fetal and maternal complications related to macrosomia, and the risk of impaired glucose tolerance. The study is based on a comparison of maternal and neonatal data in 956 cases of fetal macrosomia (birthweight > or =4000 g) in non-diabetic pregnancy with data in a control ...

Excessive fetal growth and increased birth weight are associated with significant maternal and neonatal morbidity and have become increasingly common given the global obesity epidemic. Fetal macrosomia is traditionally defined in developed countries as fetal weight greater than 4,000 grams or 4,500 grams regardless of gestational age.

Fetal Macrosomia and Pregnancy Outcomes
Obstetric Anesthesia Digest, 2009Background: Pregnancies with a macrosomic fetus comprise a subgroup of high‐risk pregnancies. There is uncertainty in the clinical management and outcomes of such pregnancies.Aim: We sought to examine clinical management and maternal and fetal outcomes in pregnancies with macrosomic infants at Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital (RBWH).Methods: Data

Sonographic EFW and macrosomia: Is there an optimum formula to predict diabetic fetal macrosomia?
The Journal of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, 2000To compare the accuracy of 31 published formulas for estimated fetal weight (EFW) in predicting macrosomia (birthweight 4,000 gm or more) in infants of diabetic mothers.The study population comprised 165 women with gestational or pregestational diabetes who had sonograms to estimate fetal weight after 36 weeks of gestation and within 2 weeks of ...

AbstractWhen macrosomia exists, shoulder dystocia is a pri‐mary obstetric concern. Current methods for estimating birth weight prior to delivery are imprecise, and macrosomia often cannot be predicted. Certain conditions or combinations of conditions should increase the index of suspicion for shouider dystocia.
