Abstract:ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to determine if fetuses with deceleration of growth velocity resulting in an EFW <10th percentile increase their growth above the 10th percentile following 2 weeks of maternal rest in the left lateral recumbent position.MethodsThis was a retrospective observational study of 265 fetuses with the prenatal diagnosis of an EFW <10th percentile. Fetuses were classified by four definitions of abnormal growth velocity: (1) a growth velocity less than 20 g/day, (2) 30 perce… Show more
