Fetal Growth Restriction: Management Using Two Guidelines - Fetal Growth Antenatal Management Evaluation

Fetal Growth Restriction: Management Using Two Guidelines (FAME) - Fetal Growth Antenatal Management Evaluation

The purpose of this study is to compare the composite neonatal adverse outcomes (CNAO) among pregnancies complicated by fetal growth restriction (FGR) managed using the Society of Maternal-Fetal Medicine (SMFM) versus International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology (ISUOG) antepartum ultrasound guidelines, to measure the rate of the individual components of CNAO, to record the rate of cesarean delivery during labor, to tabulate the rate of deviation from the management protocol assigned at the time of evaluation, to record neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission rates and to measure the rate of the composite maternal adverse outcome (CMAO).

Inclusion Criteria:

• FGR diagnosed during sonographic examinations
• estimated fetal weight less than or a fetal abdominal circumference less than the 10th percentile

Exclusion Criteria:

• Multiple gestations with FGR
