Abstract

Objective: The outcomes and management of low amniotic fluid index (AFI) in pregnancy are controversial. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between low AFI and perinatal outcomes. Materials and methods: This prospective study was conducted on 420 uncomplicated singleton pregnant women with a gestational age of over 28 weeks who referred to Al-Zahra Hospital in Rasht (Iran) for routine perinatal care. Pregnant women were divided into 3 groups of 140 patients based on the AFI and were followed up until delivery. Three groups included normal (8

羊水指数低的孕妇围产期结果评估

目的：妊娠期低羊水指数（AFI）的预后和管理存在争议。本研究旨在确定低羊水指数与围产期结局之间的关系。材料和方法：这项前瞻性研究的对象是 420 名孕龄超过 28 周的无并发症单胎孕妇，她们被转诊到伊朗拉什特的扎赫拉医院接受常规围产期护理。根据 AFI 将孕妇分为 3 组，每组 140 人，并随访至分娩。三组包括正常组（8
