NEW DATA: Fetal Growth Trajectories – the Growth Velocity Issue

On May 8, 2023, we released an episode called “Slowed Fetal Growth Trajectory and Neonatal Outcome”. That episode highlighted data that slowed fetal growth was an independent risk factor for stillbirth. This is true even though the composite EFW remained above 10 percentile. Now, there is new data which validates this concept and provides a working model which may help predict fetuses with slowed fetal growth who are at risk of stillbirth. PLUS, we will describe a free online fetal growth trajectory calculator (UK) that helps with patient education and prognostication.
