Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| prediction of latent phase duration by uterocervical angle in post term pregnancies | 5 months | In patients diagnosed with late term pregnancy, the uterocervical angle and cervical length were measured by transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) at the time of admission to the delivery room before labor induction. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| the relative success of UCA in active phase and duration of labor prediction in post term pregnancies | 5 months | 5 months |
