Best Practices in Second Stage Labor Care: Maternal Bearing Down and Positioning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Despite evidence of adverse fetal and maternal outcomes from the use of sustained Valsalva bearing down efforts, current second-stage care practices are still characterized by uniform directions to “push” forcefully upon complete dilatation of the cervix

The role of agonist and antagonist muscles in explaining isometric knee extension torque variation with hip joint angle. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
PURPOSE: The biarticular rectus femoris (RF), operating on the ascending limb of the force-length curve, produces more force at longer lengths. However, experimental studies consistently report higher knee extension torque when supine (longer RF length ...

Assessment of the effect of supine posture and phonation on modified mallampati grading and its applicability in prediction of difficult airway

open access: yesJournal of Mahatma Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences, 2018
Introduction: As it is not always possible to do Modified Mallampati Test (MMT) in sitting position, this study was designed to test the effect of supine position and phonation on classical MMT and use of such effect in predicting difficult ...
