Source-<\/strong> This post on Garbhini-GA2: AI Model of India to find gestational age<\/strong> is based on the article “India-specific model to give accurate gestational age of foetus<\/strong><\/a>” published in “The Hindu<\/strong>” on 26th February 2024.<\/p>\n

Why in the News?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Researchers have developed an India-specific artificial intelligence model- Garbhini-GA2. It accurately determine the gestational age of a fetus during the second<\/span> and third trimesters of pregnancy (months 4-9 of pregnancy)<\/span>.<\/p>\n

1. About- <\/strong>It is the first computer model for estimating late-trimester gestational age to be developed<\/span> and validated using data from the Indian population<\/span>.<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> Developed by<\/strong>– Indian Institute of Technology-Madras and the Translational Health Science and Technology Institute, Faridabad.<\/p>\n

3. Component of the GARBH-Ini initiative<\/strong>:
\na.<\/strong> It is part of a research program called GARBH-Ini<\/span> which focuses on advanced research about birth outcomes in India.
\nb.<\/strong> The GARBH-Ini program is a flagship programme of the Department of Biotechnology (DBT), Govt of India.<\/p>\n

What are the issues with current models?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

1.<\/strong> Currently, the gestational age (GA) of a fetus is assessed using a formula designed for Western populations.
\n<\/span>
\n2.<\/strong> Existing Models like Hadlock<\/span> and INTERGROWTH<\/span> estimate pregnancy age, but they are based on Western data<\/span>.<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> Indian<\/span> and Western babies grow differently during pregnancy<\/span>. So these models give inaccurate results for Indian women in the later months. This can affect due date prediction, care quality, and risk assessment for premature birth in India.<\/p>\n

What is the Significance of Garbhini-GA2 model?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

1.<\/strong> The new Garbhini-GA2 formula for the second and third trimesters accurately determines the fetus’s age for Indian population<\/span>, <\/span>reducing errors by<\/span> nearly three times<\/span>.<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> Precise gestational age is crucial for providing proper care to pregnant women and accurately determining delivery dates.<\/p>\n
