Comparison of accuracy of schilds gender specific fetal weight formula with hadlock's, shepareTs and AokFs fetal weight formulae in Pakistani population

ABSTRACT

Objective: Large number of fetal weight formulae derived using different populations suggest that there is no fetal weight formula which is acceptable worldwide. Ethnicity and gender of the fetus are the well reported and recognized causes of inaccuracies in these fetal weight formulae. The aim of this study was to compare the accuracies of Schild's gender specific formula with Hadlock's, Shepard's and Aoki's formulae in Pakistani population
