Elective Delivery

Patients with elective vaginal deliveries or elective cesarean births at >= 37 and < 39 weeks of gestation completed.

Rationale: For almost 3 decades, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) have had in place a standard requiring 39 completed weeks gestation prior to ELECTIVE delivery, either vaginal or operative (ACOG, 2021). A survey conducted in 2007 of almost 20,000 births in HCA hospitals throughout the U.S. carried out in conjunction with the March of Dimes at the request of ACOG revealed that almost 1/3 of all babies delivered in the United States are electively delivered with 5% of all deliveries in the U.S. delivered in a manner violating ACOG/AAP guidelines. Most of these are for convenience, and result in significant short term neonatal morbidity (neonatal intensive care unit admission rates of 13- 21%) (Clark et al., 2009).

Prompt: What was the gestational age of the newborn at birth?

Reasoning: Let me carefully search through the medical record to find information about the gestational age of the newborn at birth.

Looking through the medical record, I find this entry: "EGA at Birth: 38W 1D" This appears under "Newborn Observations" and is labeled as "Admission History Newborn" with "Order entered secondary to inpatient admission."

EGA stands for "Estimated Gestational Age" and "38W 1D" means 40 weeks and 1 day. I also see another entry that might be relevant: "Apgar 1 Minute,by History: 8" and "Apgar 5 Minute,by History: 9" but these are Apgar scores, not gestational age. There's also "Maternal Last Menstrual Period: 4/26/2024" which could be used to calculate gestational age, but the record doesn't explicitly state the calculated gestational age based on this date. The most direct and clear answer is "38W 1D" which means 38 weeks and 1 day gestational age at birth.

So the answer to "What was the gestational age of the newborn at birth?" is "38 weeks 1 day" or "38W 1D" as recorded in the medical record. I should check if there's any other information that might contradict or provide more detail, but I don't see anything else that specifies the gestational age. The record clearly states "EGA at Birth: 38W 1D" which is the estimated gestational age at birth.

The confidence level would be HIGH because this is a direct and specific measurement recorded in the medical record.

Gestational Age:38 weeks 1 day
