Abstract
Intrapartum care encompasses the treatment of pregnancy during labor and delivery. Knowledge of the normal labor process is essential to effectively recognize and treat abnormalities, and thus optimize maternal and fetal health. This review aims to outline the physiology of labor and discuss contemporary features of spontaneous labor, prolonged labor, and arrest of labor. It addresses management of group B streptoccocous colonization and electronic fetal monitoring practices. Additionally, issues associated with term labor such as prelabor rupture of membranes, abruption, intrapartum intraamniotic infection, and persistent occiput posterior position are discussed. The review concludes with a brief overview of delivery methods.
This review contains 7 figures, 14 tables, and 49 references.
Keywords: term labor, intrapartum monitoring, induction of labor, Group B Streptococcous prophylaxis, prelabor rupture of membranes, intraamniotic infection, mode of delivery
