Symphysis fundal height measurements in prediction of birthweight
Thai Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2010 Objective: To determine the sensitivity, specificity and predictive value of symphysis fundal height measurement in prediction of infant birthweight and to determine the level of symphysis fundal height as cut off values for low birthweight and high birthweight. We also aimed to examine the association between symphysis fundal height and birth asphyxia,

The relationship between symphysis-fundal height and intravenous ephedrine dose in spinal anesthesia for elective cesarean section. [PDF]
Korean J Anesthesiol, 2010 A decreased lumbosacral subarachnoidal space volume is a major factor in the cephalad intrathecal spread of local anesthetics in term parturients and their subarachnoidal space is decreased due to the compressive effect of huge uteri. Therefore, they show a higher level of sensory block and hypotensive episodes.

The development of a local symphysis-fundal height chart in a rural area of Tanzania [PDF]
European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 1995 In this prospective community-based study, a symphysis-fundal height chart was constructed, derived from 403 measurements in 83 women, in a local rural population. Using the recommended Cardiff chart, 132 measurements (32.9%) were below the 10th centile line, while only two measurements were above the 90th centile line.
