Measuring baby's collarbone to predict large birth weight
Part of Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at whether measuring the baby's collarbone with ultrasound can help predict if a baby will be born larger than usual. This could help doctors plan for a safer delivery.

Who can take part
- You are pregnant with one baby only.
- You are between 37 and 42 weeks pregnant.
- You agree to take part in the study.

This study tests if new blood markers can help predict gestational diabetes and the risk of having a large baby. It could lead to earlier detection and better care.
This study tests how well ultrasound can predict if a baby will be born larger than normal (macrosomia) within 24 hours of delivery. It might help parents and doctors plan for a safer birth.
This study uses ultrasound to check how well your baby is growing during pregnancy. It helps doctors understand normal growth patterns so they can better care for you and your baby.
This study checks if measuring your baby's belly, thigh, and leg bones with ultrasound can give a more accurate estimate of your baby's weight before birth. This might help doctors plan a safer delivery.
This trial studies whether a specific ultrasound approach can better detect problems with fetal (baby) growth in the later part of pregnancy. It may help identify concerns earlier so your care team can plan the next steps.
This trial compares two ways to estimate a larger-than-average baby's weight before birth: ultrasound and MRI. If you have a single baby at full term and your doctor thinks your baby may be big, this study may help improve how well we predict birth weight.
