This document provides abstracts from various studies on labor and childbirth. The studies examine different ultrasound parameters and their relationship to outcomes such as ECV effectiveness, fetal cardiac function, mode of delivery, cervical dilatation, CPD, and OASI. The findings suggest that ultrasound measurements can be useful in evaluating clinical conditions and predicting outcomes. However, more research is needed to establish specific parameters and improve diagnostic accuracy. Other studies explore the use of intrapartum ultrasound in labor management, including predicting vaginal delivery, diagnosing complications, evaluating the pelvic floor, and assessing fetal position. The studies indicate that intrapartum ultrasound is a valuable tool for decision-making and improving outcomes. Transperineal ultrasound has shown promise in assessing anal sphincter injuries, and both parents and healthcare providers have positive attitudes towards using ultrasound for predicting delivery mode. Additionally, fetal head molding during labor was found to be common and not associated with difficult deliveries, except for parieto-parietal molding which was linked to failed operative deliveries.
