Objective: To compare knowledge and practices surrounding third trimester screening of fetal growth restriction (FGR) in low risk pregnancies among Portuguese Gynecologists/Obstetricians (GOs) and General Practitioners (GPs). Primary outcome was to compare the proportion of GOs that consider the need of a third trimester ultrasound (estimation of fetal weight) for screening of FGR in low risk pregnancies and the best time to perform it with the corresponding proportion of GPs. Study design: We have conducted a prospective, observational cohort study based on application of surveys to GOs and GPs. Questionnaires were sent by e-mail to physicians and they filled them online. A second reminder e-mail was sent 7 days later. Recruitment was also done personally at scientific meetings. A total of 573 surveys were available for analysis, 298 corresponded to GOs and 275 to GPs. We used χ2 test to compare dichotomous variables and Kruskal-Wallis test for the comparison of ordinal variables.
