Official Title: Ultrasound Prediction of Persistent Occiput Posterior Position in Active Labor: a Multicentric Prospective Cross-sectional Study
Brief Summary:
Persistent occiput posterior position (POPP) represents a relevant risk factor for various adverse outcomes: prolonged labor, higher incidence of operative delivery and/or cesarean section for non-reassuring fetal conditions, higher incidence of high-grade perineal tears (OASIS).For such reasons, labor with POPP needs particular and non-routinary attention.Hence, it is important to diagnose in advance fetuses who present POPP to assure more adequate assistance in labor.Furthermore, digital examination shows a…
