Comparison of the Effect of Injection Enoxaparin Versus Conventional Treatment on Amniotic Fluid Index in Borderline Oligohydramnios in Third Trimester of Pregnancy: A Randomized Control Trial in a Tertiary Care Hospital.

Oligohydramnios is defined as amniotic fluid index (AFI) less than or equal to 5cm. A borderline AFI has been defined as an AFI of 5.1cm to 8cm. The incidence of borderline AFI compared with a normal AFI (8.1cm to 18cm) is 6% to 44% in different studies. A decrease in amniotic fluid leads to serious complications for the mother and fetus. The study objective was to evaluate if an injection of Enoxaparin improves the amount of liquor in oligohydramnios in the third trimester of pregnancy.
