After delivery at the Polish Mother's Memorial Hospital, Lódź Poland (PMMH), 1658 women were asked to fulfill the questionnaire regarding US studies during their pregnancy. At least one US study had 94% (1559) of pregnant women, 6% (99) had none. Three-US studies (the optimal number recommended by the authors) had 26%, 2-US studies had 33%, 1-US studies had 22%. Our data confirm that the series of 3-US studies during the low risk pregnancy, as it is recommended in most European countries needs further promotion and implementation in Poland. In our center, in the majority of cases, 4 or more US studies were performed in high risk pregnancies.
