PY - 2019 T2 - CURRENT Diagnosis & Treatment: Obstetrics & Gynecology, 12e AB - Weight at delivery once was considered evidence of prematurity (birthweight 4500 g). These criteria later were revised upon the realization that birthweight can be reflective of other pathologic processes aside from prematurity. Abnormalities in fetal growth at each end of the spectrum—both large for gestational age fetuses and fetuses with suspected intrauterine growth restriction—are associated with an increased risk of adverse perinatal outcome. Normative standards applying to such ultrasound parameters as estimated fetal weight, abdominal circumference, and head circumference (HC) were developed.
