Role of fetal head‐circumference‐to‐maternal‐height ratio in predicting Cesarean section for labor dystocia: prospective multicenter study

Abstract

In a large cohort of unselected pregnancies, the HC/MH ratio performed better than did fetal HC and MH alone in identifying those cases that will undergo CS for labor dystocia, albeit with moderate predictive value. The HC/MH ratio could assist in the evaluation of women at risk for CS for labor dystocia. © 2022 The Authors.
