Designation of small for gestational age according to seven fetal growth charts in England's National Health Service: population based cohort study of 3.2 million births
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to evaluate the screen positive rates for small and large for gestational age infants using seven different fetal growth charts in England's National Health Service. Their findings revealed significant variability in the identification rates of these infants depending on the standard used, highlighting the inadequacy of one-size-fits-all charts and the need for customized standards that reflect the diverse maternal characteristics within the population. The study calls for evidence-based national guidelines to improve fetal growth assessment and ensure safer clinical care.
