Macrosomia

Best Practice and Research in Clinical Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2017
Fetal macrosomia is defined as birth weight >4000 g and is associated with several maternal and fetal complications such as maternal birth canal trauma, shoulder dystocia, and perinatal asphyxia. Early identification of risk factors could allow preventive measures to be taken to avoid adverse perinatal outcomes.

Predicting Macrosomia

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, 2008
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prediction of fetal macrosomia based on ultrasound estimates of fetal weight and amniotic fluid volume combined with clinical risk factors.A retrospective cohort study of women undergoing indicated obstetric ultrasound examinations within 7 days of delivery was conducted.A total of 3115 women gave birth ...

Antecedents of macrosomia

Paediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, 1991
Summary. Antecedents of high birthweight (macrosomia) were studied using the state birth certificates of White singleton infants born in three large metropolitan counties of Washington State from 1984 to 1986. Cases consisted of 2082 live‐born macrosomic infants, defined by a birthweight of over 4.5 kg.

Relationship of Glycosylated Hemoglobin, Fetal Macrosomia, and Birthweight Macrosomia

American Journal of Perinatology, 1994
Previous 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,

Fetal Macrosomia

DeckerMed Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2019
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—Animal Models

Diabetes Care, 1980
Macrosomia is characteristic of the infant whose mother has undiagnosed diabetes mellitus during pregnancy or whose diabetes has been inadequately controlled. Animal models of diabetes have included effects of pancreatectomy or beta-cell destruction by chemical agents. Maternal effects have been variable as have been effects on the fetus.

Fetal macrosomia

International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 1992
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.

Diabetic Macrosomia

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1986
Sonar biparietal diameter, head circumference, and abdominal circumference percentile values obtained late in the third trimester were compared with birth weight percentile (relative to dates) in 147 diabetic mothers and 40 control fetuses of nondiabetics.
