dc.description.abstractBackground: Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is a common disorder in which the birth weight is less than 10th percentile. This ongoing challenging fetal adverse condition leads to postnatal morbidities and fetal mortality. Methods: Forty postnatal women with newborns weighing less than the 10th percentile for gestational age (GA) were recruited as cases in this case-control research, and forty postnatal women whose neonatal weight was within the GA were recruited as controls. A thorough history of medical, obstetric, and maternal Sociodemographic factors was recorded and compared. Results: Most mothers (46.3%) were 21-30 with a mean±SD of 24.83±4.09 years. Most of them (78.8%) belonged to the lower middle class; there was significantly poor weight gain during pregnancy among cases (80%) as compared to among controls (60%). Anemia, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, previous history of abortion, or IUGR were significantly associated with fetal growth retardation (p<0.05). Conclusion: Low socioeconomic level, low gestational weight gain, anemia, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, and previous history of abortion are potent risk factors for IUGR. Therefore, proper screening of these risk factors is essential to improve neonatal health.en_US
