Abstract:
Background: Normal labor and childbirth is fraught with complexities. In the modern times the child birth has proven to be more challenging than ever. Partogram has proven to be a simple and useful tool in monitoring normal labor. The objective of this endeavor was to site our experiences in using partogram for ‘plotting’ labors, to assess its utility, limitations and cite controversies.Methods: Authors analyzed progress of labor plotted on partograms in parturient women to see whether their labor patterns conform to the standard partogram, and can logical conclusions be drawn from their use t

Abstract:
Introduction: Induction of labor is commonly practiced intervention in modern Obstetrics. The aim of induction of labor is to initiate labor when maternal and fetal conditions necessitate delivery before the onset of spontaneous contraction with purpose to achieve safe vaginal delivery. Induction of labor is one of the most commonly practiced interventions in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology every day. The success of this obstetric practice is highly dependent upon the condition of the cervix which is assessed with Bishop‟s Score and it is well known that unfavorable cervix is assoc

ABSTRACT Ultrasound is a crucial part of everyday obstetrical practice and becomes more and more important in the management of traditionally clinical aspects of obstetrics, such as management of labor and delivery, offering a possibly more objective method of examination. The rate of labor induction has doubled in the last two decades and more objective methods are needed to assess the possible outcome of an induction and help clinicians in order to counsel women appropriately. Regarding the management of labor there is extensive evidence that clinical assessment during labor is not accurate,
