This is an obstetric ultrasound (USG) report from Ashirvad Eye & General Hospital, and it documents a fetal death.
Key details from the report:
- Patient: Chandrikaben, referred by Dr. Chirag Patel
- Date of scan: 25/08/2026
- Study: Real-time B-mode ultrasonography of the gravid uterus - "USG for Foetal Well Being"
Findings:
- Single intrauterine gestation, placenta anterior in position
- No retroplacental hemorrhage or placenta previa
- Liquor (amniotic fluid) reduced in amount (oligohydramnios)
- Foetal cardiac activity and body movements are NOT present
Dating/growth measurements:
- By LMP (18/6/25): expected maturity 21 weeks, EDD 25/3/26
- Foetal maturity on this scan: 16 weeks 1 day (i.e., the fetus is measuring significantly smaller than expected for dates - about 5 weeks behind)
- BPD: 34mm, AC: 100mm, FL: 21mm, Estimated fetal weight: 408g
- EDD by current scan: 29/3/26
Impression: Intrauterine Fetal Death (IUFD)
In plain terms: the ultrasound shows that the pregnancy has stopped progressing - there is no heartbeat or movement seen in the fetus, and the fetal growth is measuring well behind what it should be based on the last menstrual period (16w1d on scan vs. an expected ~21 weeks). This pattern, combined with reduced amniotic fluid, indicates the fetus died in utero some time before this scan was performed. The report is signed by Dr. Devang Thakkar (MD), who also includes the standard legal declaration (required in India under the PCPNDT Act) that the sex of the fetus was not determined or disclosed.
What this typically means clinically going forward: the patient will need to discuss management options with her obstetrician (Dr. Chirag Patel), which usually involves either expectant management, medical induction of labor, or surgical evacuation depending on gestational age, and further evaluation is often done afterward to look for a possible cause (infections, chromosomal issues, maternal conditions, placental problems, etc.), especially given the discrepancy between LMP-based dating and scan-based fetal size.
I'm sorry this is difficult news to receive. If this is your own report or that of someone close to you, I'd strongly encourage following up directly and promptly with the referring obstetrician (Dr. Chirag Patel) to discuss next steps and emotional support resources.
