Antenatal care as a screening tool for the detection of small for gestational age babies in the low risk population

Abstract

SummaryThe detection of small for gestational age babies is the usual first step in the identification of the truly growth retarded and at risk fetus. In the low risk population detection of these fetuses is made more difficult by the low index of suspicion and the non-interventional type of care offered to most women in this group. This study was designed to provide data on our current ability to detect the small for gestational age fetus in the low risk population, to assess the risk these babies carry in comparison with their better grown counterparts and to determine whether making a diagnosis improved the outcome for this group. Antenatal care as practised at the time of the study was a poor screening tool for the detection of the small for gestational age fetus. This group do, as recognised, carry an increased risk of adverse outcome, however the powers of detection were so poor that to draw any conclusions concerning improvement of outcomes for those detected was not possible.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
