Preterm cervical ripening may lead to cervical insufficiency or preterm delivery. Moreover, delayed cervical ripening has been implicated in a prolonged latent phase of labor at term. This chapter will review the anatomy and physiology of the uterine cervix during pregnancy and focus on the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges of cervical insufficiency and the role of cerclage in obstetrics. Anatomy The uterus is composed of three parts: corpus, isthmus and cervix. The corpus is the upper segment of the organ and predominantly contains smooth muscle (myometrium). The isthmus lies between the anatomical internal os of the cervix and the histological internal os, and during labor, gives rise to the lower uterine segment. The anatomical internal os refers to the junction between the uterine cavity and the cervical canal, while the histologic internal os is the region where the epithelium changes from endometrial to endocervical.1 The term “fibromuscular junction” was introduced by Danforth, who identified the boundary between the connective tissue of the cervix and the myometrium. -

The AP is 140/90 mm Hg. Diagnosis: A. Acute hypoxia of the fetus B. Labors before term C. Premature detachment of normally posed placenta D. Back occipital presentation E. Hydramnion 4. 6.

Know the Signs of Labor
Know the Signs of Labor Learn the signs of labor so that you know when to call your doctor and go to the hospital for delivery. Mucus plug Some women have a release of cervical mucus that may have a slight pink color, or blood- tinged. This is called passing a mucus plug or a bloody show. This may be a sign that your body is preparing for delivery, but you do not need to call your health care provider. Rupture of membranes (water breaks) Rupture of membranes is the medical term for your water breaking. This is your amniotic fluid. It can be a gush or a slow trickle and should be a clear, slightly yellow color. Often, a woman will go into labor soon after her water breaks. If this doesn’t happen, your health care provider may talk with you about helping your labor along with medicine. If you think your water has broken, call your doctor and go to the hospital. Do not take a bath or put anything into your vagina. You may wear a pad. Contractions Contractions are the tightening and relaxing of muscles in the uterus. When labor starts, these muscles tighten and relax at a regular pace. They will get closer together and stronger, letting your body know that your baby is about to be born. Sometimes, these muscle contractions are not regular, and they start and stop. They do not seem to get stronger and closer together, but stay about the same intensity. Your health care provider may describe these contractions as Braxton-Hicks or signs of false labor. -
