Slowing fetal growth velocity from the mid-trimester may signal increased risks of perinatal morbidity and mortality: a retrospective cohort study

Abstract Background Undetected fetal growth restriction is a major risk factor for stillbirth. Detecting small babies is a cornerstone of obstetric care, but we fail to detect most uteroplacental insufficiency impairing fetal growth, and most small fetuses.
