Filter by:Transvaginal sonographic measurement of cervical length versus Bishop score in labour induction at term for prediction of Caesarean delivery. This study is prospective study. This study will be carried out in Ain-shams maternity hospital. Sample size of 320 parturients.
The purpose of this study is to randomize women to be exposed during labor to different genres of music and study the effect of each genre on the level of objective and subjective stress as manifested by salivary cortisol and personal stress questionnaires, respectively. Secondary outcomes to be examined are obstetric and perinatal outcomes
This study investigates whether training Community Health Workers (CHW) to use a smartphone-based prenatal counseling application as a "job aid" instead of the existing paper based standard is associated with increased women's use of maternal health services in Singida region, Tanzania.
In this study, parturients will be randomized to either internal or external tocodynamometry contractions' follow up. Investigators recruit primiparous, those who try to have vaginal birth after cesarean section and multiparous, who need oxytocin during labor. Primary endpoint is the number of operative labors in each group. Secondary endpoints are the duration of labor, the use of oxytocin and the condition of the newborn.
The study aims to compare maternal and early neonatal outcomes of abdominal disimpaction with lower uterine segment support in comparison to the classic "push" method for delivery of impacted fetal head during Cesarean section for obstructed labor.
The objective of the study is to demonstrate whether cooling the uterine smooth muscle during cesarean section (following delivery of the fetus) will promote better uterine contraction and involution resulting in lower blood loss, use of fewer uterotonic medications, and fewer hysterectomies following cesarean section for dysfunctional labor.
This project is a clustered randomized controlled trial of a knowledge translation intervention of new ACOG guidelines for the diagnosis of poor progress in labor. The intent is to reduce the rate of cesarean section (CS) in first time mothers at term (>= 37 weeks), with a vertex presenting singleton fetus, without increasing maternal or neonatal morbidity. The guidelines were developed from data from the Consortium for Safe Labor. The unit of randomization will be sites in Alberta that deliver
In the 2010-french perinatal survey, the overall cesarean section (CS) rate during labour was 21 % and 16% to 38% in case of dystocia. The definition of " dystocia " is traditionally based on the research led by Friedman in the 1950's on a restricted population sample. Several studies over the last years seem to indicate that the different phases of labour are longer than originally described by Friedman. Our current hypothesis is that the application of a new definition of dystocia would enable a more appropriate management of labour.
The aim of this study is to demonstrate in vivo the concordance of the imagery system EOS and the spiral CT in women having had an obstructed delivery. If this concordance is demonstrated, it would allow the use of this new technique of imagery, to realize a pelvimetry during the pregnancy less irradiating for the mother, and the fetus.
Nulliparous women with a live singleton pregnancy in cephalic presentation past 34 gestational weeks will be randomized to lateral episiotomy or no episiotomy when operative vaginal delivery by vacuum extraction is indicated. Primary outcome is clinically diagnosed obstetric anal sphincter injury (OASIS) of any degree.
