A simple clinical formula for predicting fetal weight in labour at term – derivation and validation [PDF]
, 2010 Objectives. To derive and validate a simple formula for birth weight based on symphysis-fundal height (SFH) measurement during labour, and to determine a useful SFH cut-off value for prediction of birth weight .4 000 g.Methods. In a derivation study, SFH

Pakistan Journal of PhysiologyBackground: Routine symphysis-fundal height (SFH) measurement during pregnancy is a widely practiced method for estimating foetal size and gestational age in antenatal care. The objective of this study was to determine the SFH values at different gestational ages among pregnant women receiving antenatal care at LUMHS Hospital, Jamshoro and to assess ...

The Journal of the Egyptian Public Health Association, 1992 The aim of the present study was to construct standard symphysis fundal height percentile curves to be used as a reference chart in monitoring fetal growth. The construction was based on 1185 observations (symphysis fundal height measured to the nearest 0.5 cm by a malleable elastic tape) obtained from follow up of 105 cases of healthy pregnant women ...

, 2019 Introduction: Accurate knowledge of gestational age is important for optimal prenatal, delivery, and postnatal care. Early ultrasound during first trimester can provide accurate gestational age but its use is limited in resource poor setting. Last menstrual period can predict gestational age well if cycle characteristics and the date of onset of the ...
