SWAN - starved small IUGR Wrong small abnormal small and normal small STILLBIRTH is biggest complication

74
Q

what will graph of a wrong small or normal small look like

A

along the lower deciles following the pattern

75
Q

what will graph of starved small look like

A

will follow the average lines and level out tworards the date

76

    no risk < 39
    39-47 high risk
    > 48 have type 2
