Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary outcome of this study is to compare the estimated fetal weight obtained from clinical methods (Johnson’s formula, Insler’s formula, and McDonald’s measurement of symphysio-fundal height) and ultrasound (using Hadlock’s formula) with the actual birth weight of the neonate. This comparison will assess the accuracy and reliability of each method in predicting fetal weight and provide insights into their clinical utility in a tertiary care hospital setting in Central India.Timepoint: The study shall be conducted between 37 to 40 weeks of pregnancy

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
accuracy of fetal weight estimation correlation coefficients factors influencing accuracy clinical utilityTimepoint: the study shall be conducted between 37 to 40 weeks of pregnancy
