Abstract: Introduction: Gestational age assessment is not only a vital step in management of mother but also important for fetus and newborn. Measuring gestational age is utmost important during antenatal period for numerous interventions and for prevention of troublesome pregnancies. Hence the aim of this study is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of SGAS in assessment of gestational age at birth. Method: A cross-sectional study was performed with 399 neonates > 28 weeks to determine the diagnostic accuracy of SGAS in assessment of gestational age at birth and to it to best obstetric estimate (BOE) in identifying preterm newborn >28weeks. New Ballard score and SGAS scoring was done for the same. Results: The positive correlation between gestational age, NBS, and SGA is significant (p-value
