Clinical Study Regardingthe Significance of Doppler and Modified Biophysical Profile in the Management of Post Dated Pregnancy

Abstract: Background: Prolonged gestation complicates 5% to 10% of all pregnancies and confers increased risk to both the fetus and mother. In the west about 18% of all singleton pregnancies persist > 41 weeks, 10%, >42 weeks and 4% (range, 2% to 7%) > 43 weeks without any obstetric intervention. The risks for prolonged and post-term pregnancy include obesity, nulliparity, maternal age >30 years. Racial and ethnic differences have also been cited to be the reasons for higher risk of prolonged and post-term pregnancy. Me… Show more

“…[10,11] The AFI determined in the third trimester can be used as a means to evaluate amniotic fluid levels [12] . Oligo and polyhydramnios can be established using defined values in certain populations and when correlated with Doppler ultrasound, can predict adverse fetal outcomes associated with AFI derangements [13,14,15] . Having said this, AFI values must always be correlated with clinical outcomes [16,17] and the decision to initiate treatment [18] .…”
