| | | | | BY MEG WINGERTER On Oct. 25, 2024, I took a few hours off work for my last prenatal visit, one day before my due date. The doctor saw no signs my body was close to ready to give birth and recommended scheduling an induction for five days later. The baby had other plans: The contractions started at 6 a.m. the next day, and she was in the world less than 36 hours after that prenatal visit. (My husband and I joke that she'd heard us counting down to
"Claire day" and didn't want to miss the party.) Clearly, predicting birth dates isn't easy. A Denver company recently got authorization from the FDA to market an AI application that predicts birth dates based on ultrasound images. It has an 11-day margin of error in either direction, meaning it wouldn't be very informative for someone approaching her due date. It could, however, flag if babies are at risk of premature birth, allowing doctors to prepare to give them the best chance of survival. | | | | Delivery Date AI predicts when a baby will be born, with an 11-day margin of error in either direction, based on second- and third-trimester ultrasounds. | | | | | The nine-member board was evenly split at the end of a nearly eight-hour public meeting, with four members opposed, three in favor and two undecided. | | | | | Check measles, mumps and rubella vaccination rates for public schools, private schools and child care facilities. | | | | | Studies even show an uptick in heart attacks and strokes after the spring time change. | | | | | The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment on Friday reported three new cases in Adams County residents and one in a Weld County resident. | | | | | The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment has identified 20 possible exposure sites linked to the current outbreak in Broomfield, Denver, Frederick, Lafayette, Louisville and Westminster. | | | |
