NCT ID NCT07575152

First seen May 11, 2026 · Last updated May 11, 2026

Summary

This study aims to improve how doctors estimate a baby's weight before birth by also measuring soft tissue thickness, not just bone size. About 300 pregnant women at 37 weeks or more will have an ultrasound within 72 hours of delivery. The goal is to create a more accurate formula that works better for larger or smaller babies.
