This study was conducted to find out the correlation between amniotic fluid index (AFI) & estimated fetal weight (EFW) in third trimester of pregnancy. This cross sectional study was carried out on 105 women with normal singleton pregnancies at third trimester. The pregnant women were subdivided into three groups. The AFI & EFW were evaluated according to gestational age groups & fetal sex. Significant positive correlations were found between estimated fetal weight and amniotic fluid index in female fetuses of all three groups. In male fetuses, there was a significant positive correlation between AFI & EFW in group III (38 to 40 weeks), but insignificant correlation in other two groups. No study was conducted previously in Bangladesh to see the relationship between AFI & EFW. This study shows that amniotic fluid volume can be evaluated more precisely during third trimester of pregnancy by taking estimated fetal weight into consideration in third trimester of pregnancy.

Accurate calculation of the estimated fetal weight is necessary for the choice of a correct approach to management of labour. Th e existing methods are not universal and require complex application. Th is article presents a review of literatures published in PubMed and Google Scholar databases in 1955-2021 and devoted to historical aspects in development of the existing clinical and instrumental approaches to calculation of estimated fetal weight. The paper presents existing methods for calculation of estimated fetal weight at diff erent gestational ages as well as methods making it possible to predict fetal weight before gestation onset. Data on their informative value during the third trimester and alterations in their accuracy depending on the pregnant patient’s BMI are presented. Th e topic of application of magnet-resonance imaging for fetometry is considered with comparison of this approach to a more common method of ultrasonography.
