Could a simple scan make labor admission less painful and more accurate?
NCT ID NCT07278271
Summary
This study is testing whether using an external ultrasound scan on the perineum (the area between the vagina and anus) is better than a traditional internal vaginal exam for deciding when to admit a pregnant woman to the hospital for labor. Researchers want to see if the scan leads to fewer unnecessary labor inductions and causes less discomfort for the mother during the initial check-up. About 170 pregnant women at term (over 37 weeks) who come to the emergency department with contractions will be randomly assigned to receive either the scan or the exam to help make the admission decision.
