Estimated Fetal Weight

Background: Accurate estimated fetal weight (EFW) is crucial in determining delivery management. Several methods to estimate fetal weight were used such as abdominal palpation, measurement of symphisis fundal height (SFH), and ultrasound examination. Risanto’s formula based on Indonesian population had been already proven to be more accurate than Johnson’s formula. The formula was as follows: Y = 125 X - 880 where Y was EFW in grams, X was SFH in cm, and 125 was the constanta.Objective: To compare the accuracy of Risanto’s formula and ultrasound examination in estimating fetal weight.Method: A cross sectional study was carried out in Sardjito hospital, Faculty of Medicine Universitas Gadjah Mada, from March 2013 to March 2014. A total of 400 pregnant women meeting the inclusion criteria at 37 – 42 weeks of gestation were recruited. The estimated fetal weight using Risanto’s formula (R_EFW) was compared to the estimated fetal weight using ultrasound measurement (U_EFW). The U_EFW was done by obstetricians on duty or senior residents using Hadlock’s formula. Actual birth weight (ABW) was measured using the same calibrated baby scale. Accuracy was determined by comparing the mean difference between the R_EFW minus ABW (ΔR_EFW) and the U_EFW minus ABW (ΔU_EFW). Paired t-test was used for statistical analysis.Result and Discussion: The mean ABW was 3025.3 ± 414.6 gram and the mean R_EFW was 2972.7 ± 365.4 grams, while the mean U_EFW was 3058.7 ± 423.2 grams. The mean ΔR_EFW was lower than the mean ΔU_EFW (178.2 ± 147.6 grams vs 197.5 ± 155.4 grams; 95% CI 1.24 – 36.68; p = 0.04).Conclusion: Risanto’s formula was more accurate than ultrasound measurement in estimating fetal weight.Keywords: Estimated fetal weight, Risanto’s formula, Ultrasonography, Fundal height

Background: Correlation of actual fetal weight with clinically and ultrasonographically detected macrosomia cases among diabetic mother is very essential for the management of the neonates. Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to correlate actual fetal weight with clinically and ultrasonographically detected macrosomia cases among diabetic mother. Methodology: This cross-sectional study was carried out in inpatient Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and in outpatients Department of Radiology and Imaging, BIRDEM during the period of April 2005 to March 2007. Pregnant women with diagnosed diabetes mellitus (DM) or gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) selected for caesarean section or induction of labour, gestational age 236 weeks having 23700 gm by clinical method were included in this study. First clinical estimation of fetal weight was done by the investigator then Radiologist estimated the fetal weight without knowing the EFW by clinical method. The actual birth weight was estimated after the birth of the babies. Result: The mean (+SD) age of the patients was 30.8±5.1 years ranged from 20 to 40 years. A significant correlation (r=0.5081; p<0.05) was found between clinically estimated fetal weight (gm) and actual birth weight (macrosomia) (gm). Significant correlation (r=0.6199; p<0.05) was found between sonographically estimated fetal weight (gm) and actual birth weight (macrosomia) (gm). Significant correlation (r=0.4863; p<0.05) was found between clinically estimated fetal weight (gm) and sonographically estimated fetal weight (gm). Conclusion: The study findings indicate that clinical method can be used instead of ultrasonography for prediction of macrosomia in diabetic mother Journal of Science Foundation 2018;16(2):38-44

Methods: This was a cross sectional study, consisting of 655 pregnant women from Dr. Sardjito Hospital and affiliated hospital sat 37-42 weeks of gestation. Fundal height was measured from the symphisis to the top of uterine fundus, using inverted unelastic flexible tape. EFW based on Johnson’s and Risanto’s formulas were compared with the actualbirth weight. Wilcox on analysis was used for statistical analysis. Results: Mean EFW of Johnson’s formula was 3136 ± 392.2 grams and EFW of Risanto’s formula was 3056 ± 322.5 grams and mean actual birth weight was 3021 ± 341.1 grams. The mean difference between EFW of Johnson’s formula and the actual birth weight was 156.1 ± 107.3 grams, and mean difference between EFW of Risanto’s formula and the actual birth weight was 100.8 ± 86.1 grams. Those two differences was statistically significant (p=0.001). Conclusion: This study showed that Risanto’s formula was more accurate than Johnson’s in predicting birth weight based on the maternal’s fundal height.

Objectives: The identification of at-risk fetus is considered as one of the most difficult challenges for clinicians and researchers although the clinical significance of placental calcifications (PCs) and its relation to adverse pregnancy outcome are controversial. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the relationship between PC and estimated fetal weight (EFW) percentile at 30-34 weeks of pregnancy. Materials and Methods: This prospective cross-sectional study was carried out on all pregnant women except for multiple pregnancy subjects who were admitted to an outpatient perinatal center from October 2016 to September 2018. Several parameters were measured at 30-34 weeks of pregnancy, including EFW, umbilical artery pulsatility index (PI), middle cerebral artery PI, cerebroplacental ratio (CPR), right and left uterine artery PI, along with right and left uterine artery notch. Finally, the calcification of the placenta with any shape and degree was determined as well. Results: In this study, 739 pregnant women were evaluated for PC, including patients with PC (9.87%), small-for-gestational age (SGA, 3.65%), and those with at least one abnormal Doppler index (23.95%). Patients with PC and those with at least one abnormal Doppler index had significantly higher SGA (29.62% and 12.42%, respectively). In addition, there were 55.55% and 30.13% patients with SGA and PC in the group with at least one abnormality in terms of Doppler indices. Conclusions: In general, the findings showed that PC is more common in SGA. Based on the results, at least one abnormality in Doppler indices was more common in PC and SGA, and uterine artery Doppler abnormality was the most prevalent abnormal findings in the arterial Doppler. Thus, PC may be an important marker for adverse pregnancy outcomes.

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.

Introduction: the aim of this trial was to estimate fetal weight by clinical and ultrasound methods and to compare with the weight at birth in full-term newborns. Methods: This is an epidemiological, observational, cross-sectional study of a cohort of healthy full-term newborns. The sample size was 102 neonates born at the Pablo Arturo Suarez Hospital, in Quito, Ecuador, from November 2019 to January 2020. Results: In full-term neonates, the estimate on ultrasound was 80.00%, while in the clinical assessment was 72.29%. The profile of newborn analyzed is man, mestizo, Ecuadorian, born in the highlands region, with a mean gestational age of 38.67 weeks and a mean birth weight of 3,023 grams, in whom it estimated the fetal weight through ultrasound and clinical assessment. The estimation of the absolute error in both methods analyzed was 2.43% to ultrasound and -4.65% to clinical assessment, and both showed moderate concordance, 78.2% to ultrasound, and 85.6% to clinical assessment. Multivariate analysis showed the neonates with modified weight by ultrasound are 13.44 times more likely to show altered weight at birth, while neonates with modified weight by the clinical assessment are 11.95 times more likely to show altered weight at birth. Conclusions: Accuracy in the clinical assessment was always higher than in the ultrasound method, especially in low weight newborns.
