Fetal Fibronectin (fFN) Preterm Birth Prediction

Interpret fetal fibronectin (fFN) result with cervical length for preterm birth prediction in symptomatic women 22-34 weeks. Negative fFN (<50 ng/mL) has >95% negative predictive value for delivery within 7-14 days.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.
