Estimate fetal weight in grams using the INTERGROWTH-21st predictive equation

Usage

ig_fet_estimate_fetal_weight(abdocirc_mm, headcirc_mm)

Arguments

abdocirc_mm

Numeric vector with abdominal circumference value(s) in mm. Should have length one or same length as headcirc_mm.

headcirc_mm

Numeric vector with head circumference value(s) in mm. Should have length one or same length as abdocirc_mm.

Value

Numeric vector with estimated fetal weight(s) in g, with the same length as the longest input vector.

Note

Inputs are recycled using vctrs::vec_recycle_common().
