文摘

Amniotic fluid volume assessment is essential in high-risk pregnancies. Ultrasound accurately estimates normal amniotic fluid volume but not oligohydramnios or polyhydramnios. Amniotic fluid index overdiagnoses oligohydramnios leading to more labor inductions without improving perinatal outcome. Color Doppler does not improve the accuracy of identifying actual oligohydramnios. Single deepest pocket is a better measurement than the amniotic fluid index in diagnosing oligohydramnios.
