Abstract
In a study of 128 high-risk females, 90.6% delivered vaginally without surgical intervention.
- Oxytocin or prostaglandin was administered to assist uterine contractions during labor.
- The dosage and duration of drug administration were adjusted based on uterine activity and cervical dilation rates.
- An optimal cervical dilation rate was identified as 1 cm/h for first-time mothers and 1.5 cm/h for those who have given birth before in the latent phase.
- During the active phase, the optimal dilation rate was 1.5 cm/h for first-time mothers and 2.0 cm/h for those who have given birth before.
- The ideal labor duration was determined to be at least 10-12 hours for first-time mothers and at least 8 hours for those who have given birth before.
- All 128 babies born in the study were liveborn, indicating a positive outcome for the infants.
