IUGR

What is the definition of IUGR?

•< 10th centile for age include normal fetuses at the lower ends of the growth curve + fetuses with IUGR This definition is not helpful clinically

•< 5th centile for age

•< 3rd centile for age the most appropriate definition but associated with adverse perinatal outcome

Page 3: Iugr and Iufd

What is the deference between IUGR & SGA?

SGA < 10th centile for the population, which means it is at the lower end of the normal distribution ie. Constitutionally small but have reached their full growth potential

IUGR Failure of the fetus to chieve the expected weight for a given gestation

Page 4: Iugr and Iufd

What are the causes of IUGR?

•Maternal medical conditions

•Chromosomal anomalies & aneuploidy

•Genetic & Structural anomalies

•Exposure to drugs & toxins

•1ry placental disease

•Extremes of maternal age

•Low socioeconomic status

•Infections

•Multiple gestation

Page 5: Iugr and Iufd

Which maternal medical conditions result in IUGR?

•HPT•PET•DM with vascular involvement•SLE•Anemia•Sickle cell disease•Antiphospholipid syndrome•Renal disease•Malnutrition•Inflammatory bowel disease•Intestinal parasites•Cyanotic pulmonary disease

Page 6: Iugr and Iufd

How does the placenta play a role in the development of IUGR?

•Abnormalities in placental development & trophoblast invasion Idiopathic or due to maternal disease eg SLE, PET, DM, HPT•Chronic partial abruption•Placental infarcts•Placenta previa•Chorioangioma•Circumvallate placenta•Placental mosaicism•Twin to twin transfusion Syndrome

Page 7: Iugr and Iufd

What infections result in IUGR?

Congenital infections:•CMV•Rubella•Herpes•Vericella zoster•Toxoplasmosis•Malaria•Listeriosis

5-10% of IUGR

Page 8: Iugr and Iufd

Which drugs can result in IUGR?

•Alcohol•Cigarette smoking 3-4X•Heroin & coccaine•Methotrexate•Anticonvulsants•Warfarin•Antihypertensives /ß-blockers•Cyclosporin

Page 9: Iugr and Iufd

What are the genetic disorders that can result in IUGR?

•Down’s syndrome T21•Trisomy 13,18•Turner syndrome•Neural tube defects•Achondroplasia•Osteogenisis imperfecta•Abdominal wall defects•Duodenal atresia•Renal agenesis/ Poter’s S

15% of IUGR

•Symmetric IUGR•AFV/ Doppler N•Structural abnormalities•Maternal age•Nuchal translucency •Biochemical screening results

Features suspicious of trisomy

Page 10: Iugr and Iufd

Why does multiple pregnancy result in IUGR?

•Placental insufficiency /inadequate placental reserve to sustain N growth of > one fetus•Twin to twin transfusion syndrome•Anomalies with higher order gestations monozygotic twins

Page 11: Iugr and Iufd

What are the types of IUGR?

1-Symmetric –20%

•Proportionate decrease in many organ weights including the brain

•Deprivation occurs early

•The fetus is more likely to have an endogenous defect that preclude N development •U/S biometry All measurements BPD, FL, AC

Page 12: Iugr and Iufd

Types of IUGR

2-Asymmetric IUGR—80%

•Relative sparing of the brain

•Deprivation occurres in the later half of pregnancy

•The infant is more likely to be N but small in size due to intrauterine deprivation

•U/S biometry BPD, Fl N, AC

Page 13: Iugr and Iufd

Why IUGR often associated with olighydramnios?

blood flow to the lungs pulmonary contribution to amniotic fluid volume

blood flow to the kidneys GFR

urine output

It is present in 80-90% of IUGR fetuses

Page 14: Iugr and Iufd

How to evaluate a case of IUGR?

1-History:•Current preg LMP, preg test, quickening APH, abruptio placentae, & fetal movements•Previous obstetric Hx particularly looking for IUGR,& adverse outcome•Medical Hx: connective tissue diseases, thrombotic events & endocrine disorders•Hx of recent viral illness•Drug Hx•Family Hx of congenital abnormalities & thrombophilias

Page 15: Iugr and Iufd

EXAMINATION

•Symphysis fundal height in cm = gest age in wks after 24 wk•Sensitivity 46-86% in detecting IUGR•A difference of more than 2cm requires fetal assessment•Oligohydramnious may be detected on palpation

U/S

•Fetal biometry for dating then serial measurements•Anomaly scan•AF index•Doppler umbilical artery resistance index, MCA•Repeat tests every1-2 wks

Page 16: Iugr and Iufd

Invasive fetal testing

•Amniocentesis or placental biopsy/ fetal blood sampling for karyotyping if aneuploidy is suspectedfor viral studies if infections suspected•Caries the risks of infection, PROM, Preterm labor

Retrospective tests

•Maternal blood tests for CMV, Rubella, Toxo Metabolic disorders thrombophilia•Placenta should be sent for HP•Postmortem examination

Page 17: Iugr and Iufd

The constitutionally small fetus

•A fetus growing parallel to the lower centiles through out preg•Anatomically N •AFV N •Doppler N•Slim petite women

Page 18: Iugr and Iufd

Complications of IUGR

•Maternal complications due to underlying disease risk of CS•Fetal complications Stillbirth, hypoxia/acidosis, malformations •Neonatal complications Hypoglycemia, hypocalcemia, Hypoxia & acidosis, hypothermia, meconium aspiration ,Polycythemia, hyperbilirubinemia, sepsis, low APGAR scorecongenital malformations, apneic spells, intubation sudden infant death syndrome•Long term complications Lower IQ, learning & behaviorProblems, major neurological handicap seizures, cerebral Palsy, mental retardation, HPT •Perinatal mortalility 1.5-2X

Page 19: Iugr and Iufd

Treatment

•Stop smoking / alcohol•Bed rest uterine blood flow for pt with asymmetric IUGR•Low dose aspirin •Weekly visits attention to : FM, SFH, maternal wt, BP, CTG, AFV•U/S every 2-4 wks•BPP•Contraction stress test•Delivery 38 wks or earlier if there is fetal compromise•Glucocorticoids if planing delivery before 34 wks•Close monitoring in labor/ continuous monitoring /scalp PH•CS may be necessary
