Correlation of Crown Rump Length with Foetal Age In Jharkhand Population

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 5

Abstract

Introduction: Crown-rump length (CRL) is the measurement of the length of human embryo and fetuses from the top of the head (crown) to the bottom of the buttocks (rump). Material and Method: Foetuses of different age groups were collected from Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology and from different private nursing homes in Ranchi and kept in 10% formalin for 10 days . On 10th day the CRL was measured using a measuring tape from vertex to buttock, maintaining the hyper flexed attitude of foetus. The data was analysed by using regression analysis and compared with Statistical data of study named Intergrowth 21. Result: This study shows that CRL is statistically highly significant in prediction of foetal age. Conclusion: Dating of pregnancy should be done on multi facet basis based on CRL , LMP and analysis of placental membranes.
