Clinical monitoring of late fetal growth restriction

Late fetal growth restriction (FGR) poses its own challenges in respect of diagnosis, surveillance and delivery timing. Perinatal morbidity is relatively rare, and mortality extremely unusual, but given that late FGR is much more frequent than early FGR, the burden on neonatal services must not be underestimated. Doppler findings are more subtle than in early FGR, and growth rate rather than absolute fetal size may be important in defining the...
