Is analysis of placental weight centiles useful to estimate cause of fetal growth restriction?
A standard curve of placental weight would be a useful tool to explain a certain degree of placental development and the cause of FGR, and to use for further research.
Global rating forms, the tool that program directors use most frequently to document residents' competence, may not be adequate to assess the six general competencies. The results are consistent with earlier published research indicating that physicians view competence in just two broad dimensions, which questions the premise of the six ACGME competencies. Further research is needed to validate and measure six distinct dimensions of clinical competence.
