Pregnant women should undergo regular prenatal check ups, and the data from these tests can timely and accurately reflect the physical condition of both the pregnant woman and the fetus. Pregnant women who have gone to the hospital for examination may have seen the SD value written on the examination form, which is the ratio of fetal umbilical artery systolic pressure to diastolic pressure. So what are the hazards of high SD values to the fetus?
The high or low SD value can reflect the blood supply situation of the fetus to a certain extent. In the late stage of pregnancy, the SD value will gradually decrease. At 28 weeks of pregnancy, the SD value is generally around 2.7-3.0. If the SD value is higher than the normal value, it indicates that there is an abnormality in the fetal blood supply and treatment should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.
If the SD value is high, it can be very harmful to the fetus, and there may be delayed or underdeveloped fetal development in the mother's body, indicating fetal hypoxia in the uterus. Severe hypoxia can cause cerebral palsy. Pregnant women should undergo prenatal check ups on time. If there is excessive or reduced fetal movement, it is caused by fetal hypoxia in the uterus. They should go to the hospital for B-ultrasound examination in a timely manner.
The harm of high SD value to the fetus is worth paying attention to. Once the SD value is found to be too high, pregnant women must pay attention and promptly explain the situation to their doctors. Pay attention to rest regularly, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, avoid spicy and stimulating foods, avoid staying up late and rest more. You can also get some sun exposure to supplement calcium and phosphorus.
