Early onset, severe fetal growth restriction with absent or reversed end‐diastolic flow velocity waveform in the umbilical artery: Perinatal and long‐term outcomes

Abstract

The overall perinatal survival rate for pregnancies complicated by early onset, severe growth restriction with an EFW of < 501 g and AREDF is low. When delivery occurs for fetal indications, the majority of these women require classical CS. Short-term neonatal morbidity is high though none of the survivors had cerebral palsy.
