TL;DRAbstract

Labor is a progressive phenomenon. Careful evaluation of the course of labor is necessary to detect abnormalities early and to prevent prolonged labor. Once an abnormality of labor is detected, the condition of the mother, fetus, and pelvis must be evaluated to determine if treatment should allow a vaginal delivery or abdominal delivery.
