    Foot length is the most reliable anthropometric measurement for determining gestational age in newborns. This study analyzed 1000 live births, finding foot length strongly correlates with gestational age.

    Area of Science:

    • Neonatal research
    • Pediatric anthropometry

    Background:

    • Accurate assessment of gestational age is crucial for neonatal care.
    • Standard anthropometric measurements are used to estimate gestational age in newborns.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine the most reliable anthropometric measurement for estimating gestational age in live-born infants.
    • To establish normal anthropometric values and standard deviations (S.D.) for various gestational ages.

    Main Methods:

    • Anthropometric measurements of various limbs were taken from 1000 live-born babies using a non-stretchable measuring tape.
    • Statistical analysis was performed to correlate measurements with gestational age.

    Main Results:

    • All measured anthropometric parameters showed correlation with gestational age.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Foot length demonstrated the strongest correlation with gestational age (r = 0.9399).

    • Conclusions:

    • Foot length is a highly reliable anthropometric indicator for estimating gestational age in neonates.
    • Established normal values and S.D. can aid in clinical assessment of gestational age.
