Childbirth simulation to assess cephalopelvic disproportion and chances for failed labor in a French population [PDF]
Reducing failed labor and emergency cesarean section (CS) rates is an important goal. A childbirth simulation tool (PREDIBIRTH software and SIM37 platform) that evaluates a 5-min magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessment performed at 37 weeks of ...

Measurement of retropubic tissue thickness using intrapartum transperineal ultrasound to assess cephalopelvic disproportion [PDF]
Purpose First, to describe a new method of assessing cephalopelvic disproportion by measuring the retropubic tissue thickness (RTT), and second, to determine whether RTT was associated with an eventual delivery by cesarean section.

Predictors of cephalopelvic disproportion in labour a tertiary hospital in Bayelsa State, Nigeria [PDF]
Background: Cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD) is a disparity between the fetal head and maternal pelvis, usually in the absence of fetal or maternal jeopardy. It is a very common complication during labour, and it is associated with a very high caesarean

A Predictive Model for Intrapartum Cesarean Delivery in Multiparous Women After Active Labor Onset. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective Although prediction models for cesarean delivery have been established for nulliparous women, few have been developed for multiparous women, particularly for predicting intrapartum cesarean delivery after the onset of active labor. This study aimed to develop and validate a risk prediction model for intrapartum cesarean delivery in ...

Evaluation of the natural birth prediction system for assessing cephalopelvic disproportion: a multicentre prospective study [PDF]
Objectives To assess the potential value of the Natural birth prediction system (NBPS) on predicting cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD) and compare the value with a pelvimetry model and the foetal-pelvic index.Methods A multicentre prospective study was ...

Information Shocks, Legal Liability and Physician Decisions. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Physician adoption of new information about a medical procedure can affect patient outcomes. Medical malpractice law may influence physician use of such information. We analyze how physician reactions to information shocks regarding vaginal births after cesarean sections (VBACs) in the 1990s were mediated by tort reform and the standard used ...

A safe, low-cost, easy-to-use 3D camera platform to assess risk of obstructed labor due to cephalopelvic disproportion. [PDF]
Cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD)-related obstructed labor is accountable for 3-8% of the maternal deaths worldwide. The consequence of CPD-related obstructive labor in the absence of a Caesarian section (C/S) is often maternal or perinatal mortality or ...
