Priming of labor with tafoxiparin in nulliparous term pregnant women with unripe cervix—Proof‐of‐concept and dose‐finding results from a randomized controlled trial

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
This study shows that tafoxiparin 300 mg can increase the rate of cervical ripening and the likelihood of spontaneous onset of labor, while also reducing the duration of labor in women achieving spontaneous onset of labor. The favorable safety profile of tafoxiparin suggests suitability for routine clinical use, including home administration.

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Approximately one‐third of women classified at risk did not recall receiving an aspirin recommendation, suggesting opportunities for improvement within preventative antenatal care. Adherence did not vary by pre‐eclampsia risk severity. The most frequent reason for nonadherence was forgetfulness.

An attempt to improve recognition of fetal acidemia by a remodeled intrapartum cardiotocography classification: A case–control study

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Current CTG interpretation templates have shown low sensitivity or low specificity identifying fetuses with acidemia. This new interpretation template combined a high sensitivity with a high specificity. Validation on a new material is essential before considering clinical use.
