Curva da altura uterina por idade gestacional em gestantes de baixo risco

Abstract: RESUMOObjetivo: construir curva de altura uterina em função da idade gestacional em gestantes de baixo risco e comparar os valores com os da curva adotada nacionalmente. Métodos: estudo observacional e prospectivo. A amostra foi constituída por 227 gestantes atendidas no setor de pré-natal de dois serviços públicos de saúde de João Pessoa, PB. Foram incluídas mulheres com idade gestacional de certeza, feto único, vivo e sem malformações, sem condição patológica materno-fetal conhecida que pudesse afetar o cres… Show more

“…Differences between both curves, the one from Freire et al 10 and that from Fescina et al 9 used by the BMoH, raise the hypothesis that they perform differently when identifying normal fetal growth and any deviations. Therefore, since one of the main applications of SFH measurements in prenatal care is for screening fetal growth deviations, a the standard curve may not be effective enough for this purpose, over or under diagnosing those conditions because it is based in a sample of women with a pattern of fetal growth different from that of the Brazilian population.…”

“…Freire et al 10 have demonstrated that the UH growth curve developed with low risk pregnant women from Joao Pessoa (Northeastern Brazil), differs signifi cantly from that adopted by the BMoH 9 as the standard for the Brazilian population.…”

“…The uterus fundus height (UFH) may be used as a parameter to evaluate the abdominal wall distention, since it is a measurement that starts on the pubic symphysis ending up on the uterine fundus 21 . During pregnancy there is an increase of about 115% in the rectus abdominis musculature length at 38 weeks 18 .…”

“…O gráfico recomendado pelo MS do Brasil foi elaborado a partir de dados do Centro Latino-Americano de Perinatologia (CLAP). Entretanto, há autores (9) que têm demonstrado discrepância entre os valores de curvas de AU apresentadas na literatura quando aplicadas a populações diferentes das que forneceram os parâmetros para sua construção (10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17) . As diferenças observadas foram explicadas não apenas pelo caráter regional das diferentes curvas, mas também por fatores como a técnica de medição da AU.…”
