Question 343 · LEK · Polyhydramnios

By definition, benign polyhydramnios is recognised when the largest single pocket of amniotic fluid (MVP, maximum vertical pocket) is:

  1. A. ≥4 cm.
  2. B. ≥6 cm.
  3. C. ≥7 cm.
  4. D. ≥8 cm.
  5. E. ≥12 cm.
Hint

Polyhydramnios begins where the normal MVP range ends, and severity then rises in steps of a few centimetres.
