-placental insufficiency correct answersmost significant maternal factors for IUGR:
symmetric correct answers_ IUGR is usually the result of a first-trimester insult, such as a
chromosomal abnormality or infection.
asymmetric correct answers_ IUGR begins late in the second or third trimester an usually results
from placental insufficiency.
small correct answerssymmetrical growth restriction is characterized by a fetus that is _ in all
physical parameters.
AC correct answersasymmetrical IUGR is characterized by an appropriate BPD and HC and a
disproportionately small _.
head-sparing correct answersfetal blood shunted away from other vital organs to nourish the fetal
brain, giving the fetus an appropriate BPD (+- 1 standard deviation) for the true GA in the _-_
theory.
head correct answersa problem with using the biparietal diameter as a predictor of IUGR is the
potential alteration in fetal _ shape secondary to oligohydramnios.
liver correct answersin IUGR, the fetal _ is one of the most severely affected body organs, which
alters the circumference of the fetal abdomen.
