The use of IG-21 or IG-21/Hadlock in the general population would lower the number of fetuses classified as SGA except for fetuses between 36 and 38 weeks. During this period, many decisions of induced early delivery or specific management are established to prevent adverse perinatal outcome. Those results must be supplemented by a comparison to newborns' weight.
