The estimated date of delivery “EDD” or when the pregnancy is considered fully termed is a major concept majority of pregnant are obsessed with. This webinar is meant to reveal how the earliest ultrasound scan is the choice to obtain the most accurate EDD. The webinar clarifies when to go by the estimated DATE calculated by ultrasound rather than by LMP. The audience will learn how early detection of chromosomal abnormalities and trisomy’s syndromes can be made by the time of NT scan during 1st trimester.
Learning objectives:
- Understanding the gravity parity code
- Recognizing the proper necessary measurements associated with the 1st trimester.
- Focusing on the importance of when why and how to measure NT measurement.
- Identify the importance of knowing the estimated date of delivery.
- Identify when to rely on the estimated date given by LMP and in what situations we rely on the estimated date calculated by ultrasound.
