Instructions: To perform age range analysis (ARA) for each examination:

Measure parameters and mark the parameter's sizes in the table to determine each parameter's age, and average all parameter ages; interpolate for more accuracy. Us a straight edge to place symbols in the time-line. Normal fetuses will form a cluster about the LMP age estimated from 1st sonographic examination. Use single table to track growth series for each fetus. IUGR will trail LMP age. Range should be < ± 10% (20%) of AA.

ARA: To determine the relative location of any parameter in the time-line distribution, use the following formula:

(Parameter age - AA)/(AA x 0.05) = Location in standard deviations (SD)

* Transverse HC mid-skull bones' edges' ellipse. Table values from single population (n=9,000+), excepting Hadlock, et al outer HC. DuBose: FETAL SONOGRAPHY, Chapter 7 Size/Age Analysis; W. B. Saunders Co. 1996. This table is a manual version of BASIC BABY© fetal size/analysis software.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
