A survey of methods used to measure symphysis fundal height

Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2008
Symphysis fundal height (SFH) is currently used in the UK as a screening test to identify which pregnancies may require additional investigations including the use of ultrasound fetal biometry. The routine use of SFH has been subjected to extensive research assessing its sensitivity and also inter and intraobserver variation.
