Abstract

Aim: Our study aims to investigate whether there is a differencebetween the African pregnant population at 14-42 weeksof gestation and standard ultrasonographic fetal biometricmeasurements.Methods: This study was carried out at Mogadishu Somali TurkeyRecep Tayyip Erdoğan Training and Research Hospital, HodanDistrict, Mogadishu, Somalia from July 2018 to September 2018.Four hundred and eighty-six females at 14-42 weeks’ gestationwere evaluated. Obstetrical ultrasound was done using a 3.5MHz convex transducer on Toshiba Aplio XG Ssa-790a. Biparietaldiameter (BPD), head circumference (HC), femur length (FL), andabdominal circumference (AC) were identified and measured.Results: The median maternal age in the study sample was 26years with the mode value of 30 years. The highest number ofparticipants were in 38 weeks (31, 6.4%) and the lowest numberof participants were in weeks 15 and 18 with 1 in each (0.2%).BPD gradually increased from a minimum of 26.0 mm at week14 to a maximum of 95.9 mm. HC gradually increased from aminimum of 101.1 mm at week 14 to a maximum of 95.9 mmat week 42. AC increased gradually from a minimum of 76.6mm at week 14 to a maximum of 369.2 mm at week 42. FLincreased gradually from a minimum of 15.0 mm at week 14 toa maximum of 79.1 mm at week 42.Conclusion: The frequently used parameters of fetal biometryalong with ultrasonographic appearance and measurements inour local population are in agreement with international studiesexcept for HC which was lower than the Hadlock’s measurementby an average of 7.8 mm

Özet

Amaç: 14-42 gebelik haftasındaki Afrikalı gebe popülasyonu ile standart ultrasonografik fetal biyometrik ölçümler arasındaki farkı araştırmaktır. Yöntemler: Bu çalışma Somali Hodan Eyaleti Mogadişu’daki, Somali-Türkiye Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi’nde Temmuz ve Eylül 2018 ayları arasında yapıldı. Gestasyonel haftası 14-42 arasında olan 486 hamile kadın muayene edildi. 3,5 MHz probu olan Toshiba Aplio XG Ssa-790a marka obstetrik usg cihazı kullanıldı. Bipariatal çap (BPD), baş çevresi (HC), femur uzunluğu (FL) ve karın çevresi (AC) tanımlanıp ölçüldü. Bulgular: Çalışma örneğinin maternal ortalama yaşı 26 yıl idi. Ortanca yaş 26, mod yaşı 30 idi. En yüksek katılımcı sayısı 38 haftada 31 kişi (%6,4), en düşük katılımcı sayısı 15 ve 18. haftalarda 1 kişi (%0,2) idi. BPD ölçümleri sırasıyla 14. haftada minimum 26,0 mm’den maksimum 95,9 mm aralığında ölçüldü. HC ölçümleri sırasıyla 14. haftada minimum 101,1 mm’den maksimum 95,9 mm aralığında ölçüldü. AC 14. haftada minimum 76,6 mm’den 42. haftada maksimum 369,2 mm’ye kadar ölçümlerin olduğu görüldü. FL 14. haftada minimum 15,0 mm’den maksimum 79,1 mm’ye 42. haftada ölçüldü. Sonuç: Bizim ölçüm yaptığımız lokal popülasyonda sık kullanılan fetal biyometrik ölçümler uluslararası çalışmalarla uyumlu görülürken, sadece Hadlock’un HC ölçümlerine göre ortalama olan 7,8 mm den küçük ölçüldü
