Most of the risk factors for antepartum fetal death in term pregnancies found in this study coincide with known risk factors for APD as described in previous studies. We believe that in the presence of these risk factors, closer surveillance and careful medical management of the pregnancy are required, in order to reduce the incidence of APD, including induction of labor at advanced gestational age.
