“…Additionally, our study shows a statistically significant difference in explaining birthweight when it is compared with EFW by adjusted USS (EFWa). When the result was compared with actual birthweight, the EFWmr prediction increased its accuracy to within 5.7% of actual birthweight (± 188g), a result improving the findings reported by Emechebe et al (9.2%; 299 g), and resembling best reported values for clinical methods described by others authors (3,27,28). For the ultrasonographic method alone, our results (around 7%) are also consistent with other studies where the mean relative error of predicted birthweight varied from 6% to 12% of actual birthweight (9,15).…”

“…Varios autores han desarrollado fórmulas específicas para la estimación del peso del feto macrosómico teniendo en cuenta tanto la estimación de peso fetal mediante biometría como factores maternos informándose así mejores tasas de detección de macrosomía (13,14).…”

“…mencionan que para una exactitud de la estimación del peso fetal es preferible basarse en mediciones ultrasonográficas con una adición de mediciones con información relevante, el estudio presenta alrededor de 61 fórmulas para el cálculo del peso fetal, donde los algoritmos utilizan 5 tipos de información, como las características maternas, factores paternos, información específica del embarazo, datos de laboratorio y mediciones ecográficas del feto. El sistema estudiado puede predecir el peso al nacer dentro de un ±7%, esto hasta 3 meses antes del parto [2].…”
