Multitask Deep Neural Network for the Fully Automatic Measurement of the Angle of Progression

TL;DR: A multitask network with a shared feature encoder and three task-special decoders for standard plane recognition, image segmentation of PS and FH, and endpoint detection of PS is presented, and a shape-constrained loss function is designed for enhancing the robustness to noise based on the convex shape-prior.

The sonopartogram.

TL;DR: The use of ultrasound in the delivery room has increased with the advent of more powerful, portable ultrasound machines that have become more readily available for use in the last decade as mentioned in this paper , however, its use has yet to demonstrate a difference in obstetrical and neonatal morbidity in the context of the management of labor and delivery.

Reassessing the labor curve in nulliparous women.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the pattern of labor progression in nulliparous parturients in contemporary obstetric practice and found that the average labor curve differs significantly from the Friedman curve.

A new method to assess fetal head descent in labor with transperineal ultrasound.

TL;DR: To assess the feasibility and reproducibility of measuring fetal head station and descent during labor using transperineal ultrasound (TPU) imaging, to compare the evaluation of fetal station through digital examinations with concurrent TPU assessments, and to assess its utility in distinguishing patients whose pregnancy will result in spontaneous vaginal delivery from those who will require operative vaginal delivery or Cesarean section.

Birth simulator: Reliability of transvaginal assessment of fetal head station as defined by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists classification

TL;DR: In this paper, a fetal head mannequin was placed in 1 of the 11 American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) stations (−5 to +5) in a birth simulator equipped with real-time miniaturized sensor.

Transperineal ultrasound imaging in prolonged second stage of labor with occipitoanterior presenting fetuses: how well does the 'angle of progression' predict the mode of delivery?

TL;DR: To compare the angle of progression on transperineal ultrasound imaging between different modes of delivery in prolonged second stage of labor with occipitoanterior fetal position, a comparison study is conducted.
