What are the Implications of Abnormal Growth Parameters?
Abnormal growth parameters can have various implications:
Low Birth Weight (LBW): Infants with LBW are at increased risk for neonatal morbidity and mortality, developmental delays, and chronic health issues. Macrosomia: Large-for-gestational-age infants are at risk for birth injuries, hypoglycemia, and metabolic complications. Microcephaly: A small head circumference can indicate brain development issues, often associated with genetic disorders or infections.
