Investigating Below the County Level to Reveal Poverty-Related Disparity in Poor Birth Outcomes [A204]

Abstract

Hadlock criteria versus Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development racial/ethnic-stratified criteria in a multicultural urban population. METHODS:A retrospective recalculation of estimated fetal weight (EFW) and abdominal circumference (AC) in fetuses diagnosed with FGR over a 5-year period using NICHD race-specific fetal growth criteria was performed. FGR was defined as EFW or AC less than 10th percentile. Chi-square analysis was performed to evaluate the differential effects of recalculation across racial groups.
