Estimation of fetal weight: mean value from multiple formulas.
Journal Of Ultrasound In MedicinePeer ReviewedPinette M G +51999Journals
Mean fetal weight value from multiple formulas was compared to fetal weight from single formulas. Data were collected on 975 fetuses who had estimation of fetal weight by ultrasonography within 1 week before birth. Improvement in estimation of fetal weight occurred using either the mean value of multiple formulas or the Hadlock BPD/FL/AC, in comparison to fetal volume, BPD/AC, or FL/AC. BPD/FL/AC appeared to provide the best estimate of true weight in terms of overall accuracy and in terms of not showing a trend in either overestimating or underestimating true weight.
