To estimate the efficacy of oral misoprostol for labor augmentation.We performed a randomized, controlled trial comparing intravenous oxytocin to 75-microgram dose misoprostol. Women in spontaneous were eligible if they had cervical dilation 4-8 cm and required augmentation. Primary outcome was incidence uterine tachysystole, hypertonus, or both. Secondary outcomes included durations, presence nonreassuring fetal heart rate, mode delivery, select maternal neonatal outcomes.Three hundred...
Objective To evaluate the test performance of a novel sequencing technology using molecular inversion probes applied to cell-free DNA screening for fetal aneuploidy. Methods Two cohorts were included in evaluation; risk-based cohort women receiving diagnostic testing first and second trimesters was combined with stored samples from pregnancies fetuses known be aneuploid or euploid. All blinded personnel before being analyzed, validation occurred after study closed results merged. Results...
