True
False

Many SGA infants are healthy but just constitutionally small, and not all infants whose growth was restricted in utero are SGA (weight is < the 10th percentile for gestational age).
True
False

True
False

Fetus should be assessed before labor and the fetal heart rate should be monitored after labor.
True
False
Maybe
If fetal compromise is detected, rapid delivery, often by cesarean delivery, is indicated.
True
False
Due to placental insufficiency.

Due to perinatal asphyxia, that triggers Vagus reflex of anal sphincter releasing meconium.
Meconium aspiration
Hypoglycemia
Placental asphyxia
Polycythemia
It is caused by placental insufficiency (decrease O2).
Meconium asphyxia
Hypoglycemia

Meconium asphyxia
Hypoglycemia
Placental asphyxia
Polycythemia
Underlying conditions and complications are treated.
True
False
There is a specific intervention for the SGA, but prevention is aided by prenatal advice on the importance of avoiding alcohol, tobacco, and illicit drugs.
True
False
