A new symphysis-fundal height tape measure for Zaire
British Journal of Midwifery, 1995 A potential reduction in mortality and morbidity rates in both mothers and babies in Zaire could be realised by the use of a new symphysis-fundal height tape measure. Specially designed for use in Zaire, it is calibrated in weeks and months rather than in centimetres to make assessment of fetal growth easier for local midwives.

Symphysis–fundal height and size at birth
International Journal of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 2003Symphysis–fundal (SF) height prepregnancy weight weight at delivery height weight gain body mass index (BMI) and mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) measurements have been associated with birth size. However the influence of some of these measurements on birth weight seems to be more important in populations with moderate-to-severe malnutrition.

Tape measurement of symphysis-fundal height in twin pregnancies
BJOG: an International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1988Summary. We hypothesized that tape measurement of symphysis‐fundal height could be useful in detecting multiple pregnancies, and in such cases in predicting preterm labour and identifying small‐for‐gestationalage (SGA) fetuses. Although mean fundal height is substantially greater in twin than in singleton pregnancies, the value of the technique to ...

Symphysis-fundal height measurement - A reliable parameter for assessment of fetal growth
International Journal of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 1990AbstractIntrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) is one of the major causes of perinatal mortality in countries like India. Fundal height traditionally measured in relation to umbilicus and xiphisternum is of little value in predicting the fetal growth. Some workers have found that symphysis fundal height (SFH) measurements could be useful in screening ...

Antenatal identification of altered fetal growth is a significant problem in spite of the availability of sophisticated technology. The present study was undertaken to generate symphysis-fundal height curves locally for an Indian population and to assess their value in predicting altered fetal growth.

Summary. In a study to evaluate the repeatability of symphysis‐fundal (SF) height measurements by medical students, and the effect of practical training in obstetrics on this repeatability eight medical students and an obstetrician initially measured the SF height three times each in six pregnant women.

Symphysis-fundal height predicts difficult evolution of induced labours.
Acta bio-medica : Atenei Parmensis, 2017 Symphysis-fundal-height (SFH) could be prove useful for the management of labour. This study aims to assess the behaviour of induced labours in relationship with SFH values.Prospective observational study in a sample of 158 women underwent induction with intravaginal dinoprostone for different indications.

SummaryThis study assesses the inter‐observer variation of symphysis‐fundal height measurements by three methods—the coefficient of variation, the correlation coefficient and the limits of agreement. The coefficient of variation was 4% and the correlation coefficient 0·959, yet the limits of agreement were very wide.
