Stillbirth: Prevention Lets talk!Risk assessmentDecreased fetal movement
Objectives
Put stillbirth on your radarLearn the risk factors for late stillbirthWhat are possible strategies for
prevention, focus on decreased fetal movement and the risk assessment strategies

showed severe hypoxic encephalopathy)
Case 1
Poor outcome, worsening placental dysfunction not recognized in spite of normal testing (falling off the growth curve)
Growth restriction and decreased fetal movement at term- beware that antepartum testing is falsely reassuring
Case
43 yr old IVF pregnancy presents at 40 4/7 weeks with decreased FM for 2 days. Advised that the baby had less room to drink a cold drink and if still concerned to make her way to the hospital
NST was performed which was reactiveSeen at 40 6/7 weeks still reported DFMReturned later that evening no FH.
DFM at TERM
Out-come based on if the person on call believes that DFM maters
No standard protocol Typical NST>Home Missed opportunity to
review other potential risks
We know multiple consultations is associated with increased risk*
LETS TALK…
Alex Heazell in press
Elliot’ Dad
Worried about Down’s, normal nuchal scan, so relieved
Comments to Nicki “You don’t look 43!” Noted DFM 40 +3, and 40 +4, NST normal, seen
by the midwife, OB gave the “all clear” on the phone, trying to get away Friday evening.
40 6/7 seen Still DFM thought they were being paranoid because the NST was normal, went for a walk around the pond, told to eat something and then return. Returned IUFD, unexplained.

babies were admitted to the NICU to observe glucose levels
Hmmmm-
Until with have randomized controlled trials assessing the risk and benefit of expectant verses active management all we can do is discuss what we know– DFM– AMA– RACE– Obesity

Pregnancy ending in preterm delivery
Pregnancy leading to a preterm delivery.
Mean time to count to ten is 00:12:32.

Fewer FM towards time of delivery
The 2 h ”alarm” occurs in 13.5% of these pregnancies Specificity 97.6%
Undetected IUGR in stillbirths
Only between 11- 20 % of pregnancies that end in a stillbirth in a severely growth restricted baby are detected prior to the stillbirth
Prevention
Early prenatal care Black women and
immigrants Screen for congenital
anomalies Optimize health,
smoking, weight gain Reduce multiples
Improve awareness and management of decreased fetal movement
Individualize risk assessment late in pregnancy, include race, age, obesity, parity on treating a women when she is “post-dates”
