ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the application value of INTERGROWTH-21st standard evaluate intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR).We aimed at predicting IUGR with ultrasonic fetal growth measurements.Methods A prospective cohort of singleton pregnancy scanned after 28 gestational weeks was constructed.The Z-score values of growth measurements were calculated using the INTERGROWTH-21st standard.Logistic regression equation was used to establish the prediction formula.Finally,the new formula was compared with the traditional Hadlock method to predict the accuracy of IUGR.We assessed outcomes for consenting participants who attended research scans and delivered at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University.Results A total of 834 patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria were included.After the exclusion of 143 lost cases,565 of control cases and 126 of IUGR cases were obtained.The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictivevalue,negative predictive value,false positive rate and false negative rate of prediction model wererespectively88.9 ％,85.4 ％,57.7 ％,97.2 ％,14.6 ％,11.1 ％.In contrast,the values of Hadlock wererespectively81.7％,82.7％,51.2％,95.3％,17.3％,18.3％.Conclusions This study shows aprediction model of IUGR.INTERGROWTH-21st standard improved the diagnostic accuracy of IUGR,especially enhanced the positive predictive value.
