Implication of screening accuracy for suspected small-for-gestational age and additive value of third-trimester growth-trajectory indicators in predicting severe adverse perinatal outcome in low-risk population: pragmatic secondary analysis of IRIS study.

Normal birthweight infants, falsely suspected of SGA during pregnancy had no higher rates of obstetric interventions. Our results based on a low-risk population do not clearly support that third trimester low fetal growth velocity (ACGV<10%) may be of additive value for the identification of fetuses at risk of SAPO. Crossing centiles >20 and >50 performed very poorly in identifying abnormal fetal growth. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
