EP08.14: Computerised CTG features in small for gestational age and fetal growth restriction between 32+0 and 36+6 weeks.

This article, titled "EP08.14: Computerised CTG features in small for gestational age and fetal growth restriction between 32+0 and 36+6 weeks," explores the characteristics of computerized cardiotocography (cCTG) in suspected late-onset fetal smallness and compares cCTG analysis in small-for-gestational age (SGA) and fetal growth restriction (FGR). The study, which included 105 cases and 367 cCTG recordings, found a negative correlation between umbilical artery PI and UCR and long-term variability (LTV) and short-term variability (STV), as well as a positive correlation between these parameters and the length of recording. FGR fetuses showed a longer duration of cCTG recording and lower STV compared to SGA fetuses. The study concludes that there is a relationship between cCTG and fetal Doppler parameters, and that pathological cCTG is mainly accounted for by FGR cases. [Extracted from the article]
