About this document
Maternal Erythrocytosis and SGA Risk at High Altitude by Erika Ramos Huacara is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study investigates whether maternal erythrocytosis is a risk factor for small-for-gestational-age (SGA) births at high altitudes (3,400 m) among pregnant women without underlying health issues. The findings indicate that maternal erythrocytosis does not significantly increase the risk of SGA, while inadequate prenatal care is linked to a higher risk. The research highlights the importance of adequate prenatal control in preventing adverse neonatal outcomes in high-altitude pregnancies.
