Is pathological fetal Doppler cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) associated with adverse delivery outcomes in pregnancies complicated by fetal growth restriction undergoing labor induction? A retrospective cohort study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The optimal delivery approach for fetal growth restriction (FGR) with pathological cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) remains uncertain. This study evaluated the association between isolated pathological CPR (<5th percentile) and delivery outcomes, specifically the rate of cesarean delivery (CD) due to non‐reassuring fetal heart rate ...

Adverse perinatal outcomes associated with macrosomia in nulliparous women: A multicenter cohort study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Our study aimed to evaluate the combined risk of macrosomia and nulliparity. We investigated whether macrosomia is independently associated with an increased rate of intrapartum cesarean delivery (CD) and adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes among nulliparous women delivering at term.

The ED50 and ED95 of oxytocin infusion rate for maintaining uterine tone during elective caesarean delivery: a dose-finding study

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2019
Background The 90% effective dose (ED90) of oxytocin infusion has been previously estimated to be 16.2 IU h− 1. However, bolus administration of oxytocin prior to the infusion may decrease the infusion dose required. The aim of this study was to estimate
