Abdominal examinations included pelvimetry, X-ray for foetal position and others. |
Radiographic pelvimetry alone as a predictor of dystocia has not been shown to have benefit and, therefore, is not recommended. |
Secondly, we used the internal pelvimetry results for analyzing the indications. |
Not enough evidence is available to support the use of x-ray pelvimetry in patients whose fetuses have cephalic presentations. |
A randomized controlled trial showed that radiographic pelvimetry is not able to reliably predict the route of delivery. |
When implemented as part of a strategy of pregnancy management, pelvimetry appears to have no impact on stillbirth. |
