Abstract

Objectives: Our primary aim was to evaluate the ability of various cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) reference values suggested by the Fetal Medicine Foundation to predict adverse neonatal outcomes in term fetuses exhibiting lateonset fetal growth restriction (LOFGR). Our secondary aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of other obstetric Doppler parameters used to assess fetal well-being in terms of predicting adverse neonatal outcomes.
