An Observation of Outcome in Association with Spontaneous Onset of Labor and Induced Labour of Primigravida at Term

SSB Global Journal of Medical Science, 2020
Introduction: Labour is a usual physiological process considered by progressive rise in frequency, intensity and duration of uterine contractions resulting in effacement and dilatation of the cervix with descent of the fetus over the birth canal. Initiation of labour is definedas iatrogenic stimulation of uterine reductions to cause the delivery of ...

[The clinical onset of spontaneous labor in obstetrical research].

Zeitschrift fur arztliche Fortbildung und Qualitatssicherung, 2003
The onset of labour is a cornerstone in the process of childbirth, albeit difficult to define. When a woman's subjective assessment that labour has started is not accompanied by cervical changes, discrepancies can arise between her and her caregivers' perceptions of what labour and childbirth is all about.

Does the Onset of Spontaneous Labor at Term Influence Fetal Biophysical Test Parameters?

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1988
Recent data suggest that fetal breathing movement incidence declines while fetal heart rate (FHR) and body movement incidence do not change within 72 hours of spontaneous term labor. We conducted a retrospective study to determine whether the length of time from testing to spontaneous labor onset could influence these biophysical test parameters ...

Urinary nitric oxide metabolite changes in spontaneous and induced onset active labor

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2004
Background.  The aim of this prospective, randomized study was to investigate the changes in urinary nitric oxide (NO) metabolite between the latent and the active phases of spontaneous and either prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) or prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)‐induced labors.Methods.  Eighty‐eight singleton pregnant women at 36–41+ weeks' gestation without signs of

[Importance of oxytocin sensitivity for the spontaneous onset of human labor].

Geburtshilfe und Frauenheilkunde, 1983
The significance of oxytocin for the onset of labour in humans is disputed, mainly because there is no increase in oxytocin concentration in the peripheral maternal blood before onset of labour. However, Fuchs et al. have recently shown that the concentration of oxytocin receptors in the myometrium is significantly higher directly before onset of ...

Plasma Steroid Concentrations in Maternal and Umbilical Circulation after Spontaneous Onset of Labor*

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1980
Blood samples were obtained from the maternal peripheral vein (n = 17) during the second stage of spontaneous labor and from the umbilical artery (UA) and vein (UVn) immediately after delivery. Four delta 4-and five delta 5-steroids as well as estradiol were measured by RIA. Additionally, cortisol was determined in maternal plasma.

Induction of labor by Foley catheter compared with spontaneous onset of labor after previous cesarean section: a cohort study

Journal of Perinatology, 2017
To evaluate the safety of induction of labor (IOL) with Foley catheter (FC) in women with a history of previous cesarean section (CS) and to assess risk factors for repeat CS and adverse maternal outcomes.Cohort study of 1559 women with a history of previous CS in Helsinki University Hospital, Finland between 2013 and 2014.Three hundred and sixty-one ...

Adenomyosis in a primipara resulting in spontaneous rupture of the uterus at the onset of labor

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1938
Summary An interesting and rare ease of spontaneous rupture of a full-term primigravid uterus at the onset of labor is reported. The patient had had no previous operative manipulations of the uterus and by subsequent microscopic examination, and at operation it was demonstrated that adenomyosis was responsible for the rupture.
