The growing number of sales channels through which customers can make purchases has made it imperative for managers to understand how decide use. However, this presents a significant challenge because there is reason believe the channel decision process evolves over lifetime customer. authors document existence and nature phenomenon by analyzing evolution customer's choice from trial stage posttrial stage. First, they analyze data book retailer replicate their analysis using durables apparel...
Objective: Preeclampsia is one of the most severe diseases among hypertensive disorders pregnancy (HDP) and leading cause maternal fetal morbidity mortality. It crucial importance to early identify women at a high risk for preeclampsia implement appropriate preventive strategies. In our study, we aimed test hypothesis that serum uric acid creatinine ratio (SUA/sCr) related development neonatal complications. Methods: We searched creatine values in medical records 269 who consecutively...
One of the most intriguing findings in multichannel customer management literature is positive association between purchasing and profitability. The question whether this finding can be put into action. That is, a firm develop marketing campaign to increase hence average profitability, if so what are key factors that enable success. We design implement randomized field experiment investigate question. tests four campaigns vary communications message provision financial incentives. find...
The objectives of this study were firstly to assess the longitudinal changes various sonographic parameters fetal head progression in relation length active second stage labor, and secondly compare ultrasound findings obtained longitudinally among fetuses with persistent occiput posterior (OP) vs those anterior (OA) position.From a series nulliparous low-risk women at term attending labor ward our university hospital, transperineal volumes prospectively acquired beginning (T1) 40-min...
To investigate the association between application of fundal pressure during second stage labor (Kristeller maneuver) and risk levator ani muscle (LAM) injury.This was a prospective case-control study women recruited immediately after their first vaginal delivery in our university hospital March 2014 September 2016. Women who underwent Kristeller maneuver were as cases. For each case, control (no Kristeller) matched for body mass index, use epidural analgesia, duration birth weight. All...
To assess the reproducibility of a new technique for three-/four-dimensional (3D/4D) ultrasound imaging pelvic floor: OmniView™ volume contrast (VCI) measurement hiatal area on maximum contraction and Valsalva maneuver. In addition, we aimed to study intermethod agreement between 3D/4D render method.We acquired one static 3D two dynamic 4D transperineal volumes (one obtained during maneuver) from 35 nulliparous asymptomatic healthy volunteers women with symptoms floor dysfunction. Each...
Objectives The purpose of this study was to assess the reproducibility a new technique for 3‐dimensional (3D) pelvic floor sonography: OmniView combined with Volume Contrast Imaging (VCI; GE Healthcare, Kretz Ultrasound, Zipf, Austria) hiatal area measurement. In addition, we aimed intermethod agreement between and standard 3D rendering method. Methods We acquired static sonographic transperineal volume from 124 nulliparous asymptomatic women 118 symptoms dysfunction. Each data set analyzed...
ABSTRACT Objective To assess the effect of levator ani muscle (LAM) coactivation at term on outcome labor in nulliparous women. Methods This was a prospective study 284 low‐risk women with singleton pregnancy recruited before onset labor. The anteroposterior diameter hiatus measured each woman transperineal ultrasound rest, maximum pelvic floor contraction and Valsalva maneuver after visual feedback. LAM defined as reduction comparison that rest. association hiatal values mode delivery...
To assess the intermethod agreement between two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) transperineal ultrasound methods in measuring a new index of fetal head station (the head-symphysis distance (HSD)) active labor, to potential factors that may affect their agreement.HSD was measured by 86 women once using 2D 3D technique. images were acquired first 43 cases other women. Intermethod analyzed means intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) Bland-Altman analysis. In addition, affecting...
To evaluate whether the fetal head-symphysis distance measured by three-dimensional transperineal ultrasound during active second stage predicts operative delivery.Prospective observational study.University hospital, Bologna, Italy.Seventy-one nulliparous women at term in of labor.We acquired a series sonographic volumes beginning (T1) and every 20 min thereafter (T2, T3, T4, T5, T6) until delivery. All were retrospectively analyzed was for each acquisition. We compared between with...
ABSTRACT Objective To produce reference ranges and Z ‐scores for corpus callosal (CC) length in the fetus, based on transvaginal three‐dimensional (3D) ultrasound imaging. Methods This was a cross‐sectional multicenter retrospective study 3D volume dataset acquisitions of fetal CC between 15 th 37 weeks gestation. Only datasets acquired transvaginally through anterior fontanelle were selected. After plane alignment multiplanar imaging, measured edge‐to‐edge magnified images. Intra‐...
To evaluate the post-partum maternal cardiac function in patients with history of severe preeclampsia.A series women previous singleton pregnancy complicated by preeclampsia underwent transthoracic echocardiography at 6-12 months from delivery. A group uncomplicated was selected as controls.Sixteen were enrolled study whereas 18 controls. In systolic (p=0.002) and diastolic blood pressure (p=0.044) significantly higher. Significant differences observed left ventricular (LV) parameters, such...
To assess whether subpubic arch angle (SPA) measurement before labor onset can predict outcome among low-risk pregnant women.3D ultrasound volume was transperineally acquired from a series of nulliparous women with uncomplicated pregnancy at term the labor. SPA measured offline using Oblique View Extended Imaging (OVIX) on each performed by an investigator not involved in clinical management. Labor prospectively investigated whole study group.Overall, 145 were enrolled study. Of these, 83...
The aim of this paper was to assess the feasibility and reliability a new automated method for measurement angle progression (AoP) in labor.AoP assessed using two-dimensional transperineal ultrasound by two operators 52 women active labor evaluate intra- interobserver reproducibility. intermethod agreement between manual techniques analyzed means intraclass correlation coefficient Bland-Altman method.Automated measurements were feasible all cases. Automated assessments correctly depicted...
