Cervical Dilation: Accuracy of Visual and Digital Examinations

OBJECTIVE:To determine the accuracy of visually versus digitally determined cervical dilation. METHODS:We studied 64 pregnant women with rupture of the amniotic membranes. One of two residents performed a speculum examination, estimated the dilation and effacement visually, and noted whether fetal p...
