A single measurement was most accurate for detecting low birth weight for gestation at 32 to 33 weeks. It is suggested that symphysial-fundal height measurements should be made routinely on all antenatal patients and that each obstetric unit should derive its own standard curves....
Fundal height can predict the birth weight of your baby — however, this method can only be used after 33-36 weeks of the pregnancy, when your baby is in the vertex position (with their head down). In order to calculate the estimated birth weight using the fundal height we need to use...
Surprisingly, she came late by herself at 34 weeks of gestation. On examination, she was of average body build. Her vital signs were normal. The symphysis-fundal height was 34 centimeters. The patient was admitted for termination after dexamethasone. Her hematocrit was 36.2%, WBC, 7300/ cubic...
Normal: revert to serial fundal height measurement • Abnormal: refer for urgent obstetric review For further information and examples, please see http://www.pi.nhs.uk/growth/example.htm. When to measure Fundal height measurement should commence at 26--28 weeks, to monitor growth from soon af...
