Abstract:
Objective To estimate the natural history of cervical effacement in labor. Study Design This is a retrospective cohort study of term, vertex, singletons who reached 10 cm of cervical dilation from 2010 to 2014. Interval-censored regression was used to estimate the median number of hours between changes in effacement (measured in centimeters of the residual cervix) and to estimate the median effacement at a given cervical dilation. Analysis was stratified by parity and labor type. Results In total, 7,319 patients were included. Multiparas had faster effacement from 1 cm to complete effacement t

Abstract:
Background: Dr. Edward Bishop developed the original bishop score. He concluded that elective induction in multiparous women was successful with a score > 8. Calder introduced the modified bishop score in which he replaced cervical effacement with cervical length in cms. Score of 6-12 is favourable. In this study, studied the cervical effacement/ length as an independent predictor of vaginal delivery in a primigravida.Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted from May 2018 to January 2019.

<strong>Abstract</strong> <strong>Background: </strong>Cervix plays major role in childbirth. The sign of onset of labour are painful uterine contraction, slight mucus mixed bleeding the 'show', dilatation and effacement of cervix and formation of bag of membranes. Bishop score is quantifiable method used to predict labour induction outcome which includes cervical dilatation, effacement, head station, consistency and position of cervix. A Bishop score of 9 conveys a high likelihood for successful induction. <strong>Methods:</strong> The present study was carried out in Department of Obstetrics

Abstract:
IntroductionEffective labour induction is marked by the onset of uterine contractions, progressive cervical dilation, and effacement, culminating in a vaginal birth without maternal or fetal complications. The success of induction largely depends on cervical ripening. Isosorbide mononitrate (ISMN), a nitric oxide donor, has shown potential for cervical ripening, facilitating labour induction by promoting cervical softening, effacement and dilation. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of ISMN for cervical ripening before labour induction at term or post-term.MethodsIn this double-blind

Abstract Prematurity is the leading cause of neonate morbidity and mortality. In the United States, the preterm rate varies widely, from 7.5% to 13.6%, with an average of 11%. Modifiable risk factors should be controlled to avoid preterm labor. Preterm labor is defined as regular uterine contractions accompanied by a change in cervical dilation, effacement, or both occurring at less than 37 and more than 20 weeks’ gestational age. Tocolytic therapy should be used judiciously based on obstetric goals. Anesthesiologists and obstetricians should maintain close communication to improve the fetal o

Abstract:
Normal labour is a process of spontaneous expulsion of the fetus, placenta, and membranes at term. This process is initiated by complex endocrine mechanisms that cause uterine contractions which lead to effacement and dilatation of the cervix and descent of the fetus, resulting in delivery. About 10% of women go into labour in the preterm period. The progress is dependent on uterine contractions (power), the size and presentation of the fetus (passenger), and the size of the pelvis (passage). For ease of management, the observed labour is artificially divided into three stages. The partogram i

Abstract:
The human cervix serves a dual structural function throughout pregnancy. Prior to term, the cervix remains closed and firm to support the increasing weight of the fetus. At term, it must soften ( i.e., ripen) and dilate to permit birth. Timing of cervical ripening is critical for pregnancy outcome. Cervical insufficiency, or preterm ripening, is diagnosed if a cervix is not stiff enough to support the pregnancy to term and may cause miscarriage or preterm labor. This is sometimes observed mid-pregnancy when funneling at the internal os or shortening of the cervix is observed during a routine u
