    Stillbirth evaluation is crucial for physicians, as the most common cause is chronic fetal hypoxia. A structured protocol aids in comprehensive assessment, though tailored evaluations are preferred.

    Area of Science:

    • Perinatology
    • Obstetrics
    • Fetal Medicine

    Background:

    • Stillbirth affects approximately 1% of pregnancies, presenting a common yet traumatic experience for healthcare providers.
    • Detailed stillbirth evaluations are frequently deferred due to the unpleasant nature of the event.
    • Chronic fetal hypoxia or asphyxia is the presumed leading cause of stillbirth, though not always immediately apparent.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To provide a comprehensive evaluation protocol for stillbirth.
    • To guide physicians in assessing stillbirth cases effectively.
    • To emphasize the importance of a thorough investigation despite the challenges.

    Main Methods:

    • The study outlines a protocol for stillbirth evaluation.
    • It suggests a range of tests and studies to be considered.
