[Predicting the outcome of labor in women with contracted pelvis]
The authors suggest that the coefficient, representing the ratio between the sizes of the small pelvis section and fetal head section, be used for the prediction of labor outcome for the fetus in women with a contracted pelvis. When the coefficient values K1-K4 were lower than 1.32, 1.35, 0.68, and 0.79, more than 90% of the newborns developed signs of cerebral circulation disorders, this prompting the use of cesarean section for this group of pregnant women. Timely correction of the policy of labor management with due consideration for the anatomical features of the pelvis helped reduce the perinatal mortality in multigravidae to 5/1000, mainly at the expense of carrying out planned cesarean section and monitoring in labor.
