Study Arms (2)
sildenafil citrate
EXPERIMENTAL50 pregnant female will be treated with sildenafil citrate 25 mg every 8 hours (Silden EIPICO co.) orally, starting at the diagnosis of FGR till delivery.
low molecular weight heparin
EXPERIMENTAL50 pregnant female will be treated with a single daily dose of LMWH (tinzaparin) (Innohep LEO pharmaceutical products.) subcutaneously starting at diagnosis of FGR till delivery according to body weight as follow \< 50 kg 3500 units daily 50-90 kg 4500 units daily 91-130 kg 7000 units daily 131-170 kg 9000 units daily \> 170 kg 75 u/kg/day
Interventions
sildenafil citrate 25 mg every 8 hours (Silden EIPICO co.) orally, starting at the diagnosis of FGR till delivery
a single daily dose of LMWH (tinzaparin) (Innohep LEO pharmaceutical products.) subcutaneously starting at diagnosis of FGR till delivery
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Maternal age between 20-35 years.
- Being at a gestational age 28-35wks.
- Singleton pregnancy.
- Fetal growth restriction diagnosed by ultrasound with estimated fetal weight below the 10th percentile, and/or fetal abdominal circumference at or below the tenth percentile.
You may not qualify if:
- Maternal age less than 20 years or more than 35 years.
- Undetermined gestational age.
- Multiple gestation.
- Chronic diseases with pregnancy e.g. Chronic hypertension, diabetes type 1 or 2.
- Etiologies of FGR other than placental insufficiency as fetal malformations, aneuploidy or infections.
- Suspected fetal compromise requiring emergency delivery.
- Any contraindication to the use of sildenafil e.g. known significant maternal cardiac disease, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, concomitant treatment with nitrates or previous allergy to sildenafil.
- Any contraindication to the use of LMWH e.g. known bleeding disorder, active antenatal bleeding or at increased risk of major hemorrhage (e.g. placenta praevia), thrombocytopenia, severe renal or hepatic disease.
- Drug or alcohol abuse.
- Patient refusing to participate in the study or unable to consent.
