Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), or fetal growth restriction, is the poor growth of a fetus while in the womb during pregnancy.IUGR is defined by clinical features of malnutrition and evidence of reduced growth regardless of an infant's birth weight percentile. [5]
The WHO Smart Guidelines are part of a broader global trend of digitizing clinical guidelines to make them more actionable in healthcare systems. For example, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the United States developed the "Adapting Clinical Guidelines for the Digital Age" (ACG) initiative, which promotes a holistic ...
In follow-up studies adequate postnatal catch-up growth has been demonstrated, which may suggest a placental cause of the IUGR. [ 6 ] When predicting the likely effects (if any) of CPM detected in the first trimester, several potentially interactive factors may be playing a role, including:
[1] Risk factors include pregnancy at an older age and smoking as well as prior cesarean section, labor induction, or termination of pregnancy. [6] [3] [4] Diagnosis is by ultrasound. [1] It is classified as a complication of pregnancy. [1]
Histopathology of placenta with increased syncytial knotting of chorionic villi, with two knots pointed out. The following characteristics of placentas have been said to be associated with placental insufficiency, however all of them occur in normal healthy placentas and full term healthy births, so none of them can be used to accurately diagnose placental insufficiency: [citation needed]
GIN has an International Guideline Library and registry, [7] one of the world's largest guideline libraries, [citation needed] containing regularly updated guidelines and publications of the GIN membership, as well as other guideline developers. The registry is open for all guideline developers to register their guidelines.
The PRISMA flow diagram, depicting the flow of information through the different phases of a systematic review. PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) is an evidence-based minimum set of items aimed at helping scientific authors to report a wide array of systematic reviews and meta-analyses, primarily used to assess the benefits and harms of a health care ...
Intrauterine hypoxia can be attributed to maternal, placental, or fetal conditions. [12] Kingdom and Kaufmann classifies three categories for the origin of fetal hypoxia: 1) pre-placental (both mother and fetus are hypoxic), 2) utero-placental (mother is normal but placenta and fetus is hypoxic), 3) post-placental (only fetus is hypoxic).
