Association of Biophysical Profile With Neonatal Outcome In Patients Presenting With Reduced Fetal Movements: An Observational Study At SMS Medical College, Jaipur Rajasthan.
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Background: Perinatal period is the most vulnerable period in the life of an individual and the rate of deaths during this period is higher than any other period of life. Reduced fetal movements is a common indication for assessment of fetal well being. Reduced fetal movements is considered as high risk pregnancy because the fetus is at high risk of hypoxia and sudden demise. Biophysical profile predicts neonatal acidosis at delivery better than APGAR score and thus the risk of fetal death. Methods: Hospital based prospective study conducted at Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, SMS Medical College, Jaipur. Total 130 pregnant women were included in this study. Results: Low BPP score was associated with low Apgar score, increased rate of neonatal admissions and increased neonatal deaths. Conclusion: The association between BPP score, APGAR score, mode of delivery and NICU admission was statistically significant.
