In the subgroups with scalp lactate &gt;4.8\u2003mmol\/l (lactacidaemia), the corresponding median (range) values were 6.2 (4.9\u201314.6), 5.9 (4.9\u201315.9) and 5.7\u2003mmol\/l (5.0\u20137.9\u2003mmol\/l), respectively (no significant differences between the groups). The proportions of neonates with cord artery pH\u2003&lt;\u20037.00, metabolic acidaemia or Apgar score &lt;7 at 5\u2003minutes were similar in all weight groups.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion\u2002<\/jats:bold> SGA fetuses with fetal heart rate abnormalities have the same ability to produce lactate as a response to intrapartum hypoxia as AGA and LGA fetuses. The risk of a poor outcome associated with high lactate concentration is the same in SGA, AGA and LGA fetuses.
