Clinical Trial Summary

We are going to do 2d ultrasound to compare between hadlock's formula and thigh soft tissue formula in expecting the after birth fetal weight and to find which of these formulas to be more accurate

Description:

We are going to do 2d ultrasound to 200 pregnant women between 38 weeks to 40 weeks singleton pregnancy in Ain Shams University Maternity Hospital to measure the expected fetal weight by hadlock's formula and thigh soft tissue formula and then we are going to measure the actual fetal weight after birth of these 200 fetuses and to find out which formula to be more accurate in estimation of fetal weight
