INTRODUCTION
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is defined as a failure to
achieve the endorsed growth potential
28 to 34 week <4

Stage II
• Severe placental insufficiency
• UA absent-end diastolic velocity or reverse AoI
• Delivery should be recommended after 34 weeks
• Risk of emergent CS at labor induction exceeds 50%
Stage III
• Advanced fetal deterioration, low-suspicion signs of fetal acidosis
• Reverse absent-end diastolic velocity or DV PI >95 centile
• Higher risk of stillbirth and poorer neurological outcome
• Reasonable to delay elective delivery to reduce as possible the effects of
severe prematurity
• Delivery should recommended after 30 weeks
• Monitoring every 24-48 h
Stage IV
• High suspicion of fetal acidosis and high risk of fetal death
• Spontaneous FHR decelerations, reduced variability (<3ms) or
reversed atrial flow in DV doppler
• High risk of stillbirth within next 3-7 days
• Delivery after 26 weeks by CS at tertiary care center under steroid
treatment for long maturity
• Survival rate exceeds 50% only after 26-28 weeks
• Monitoring every 12-24 h
