obstetrics term - bry20


Posted: Dec 15, 2009

Following sentence has me stumped.

She had an ultrasound performed that showed ( NAFI)? of approximately 0-1.

I'd be forever grateful!

obstetrics...sm - babs

Maybe saying an AFI (amniotic fluid index) ??

NAFI - dsauverwald

I have seen a few OB physicians say NAFI, which stands for normal amniotic fluid index, but the physician could very well be dictating "an AFI", which is more likely than NAFI.

You are right about that...sm - babs

but poster's sentence read something like this--ultrasound showed NAFI of 0-1. It couldn't be a "normal" AFI because normal range is from 8 to 18. That is why I was thinking the N was actually the word an. Just my thoughts. :)
I agree - dsauverwald

Sorry, I guess I did not read the actual number! In that case, I would definitely say "an AFI".
