Obstetrical simulation dates from the Paleolithic period. Gynecologic simulation has its origins in the 1920s Link box trainers. By improving maternal-fetal outcomes, obstetric simulation secures our existence. Improved maternal-fetal outcomes create a need for gynecologic surgery and simulation. Therefore, gynecologic simulation may be an afterthought that has yet to attain a validated place i...

introduction: regarding to the recent advances in assisted reproductive techniques (art), twin and multiple pregnancies have increased during past years. objective: this study was performed to compare obstetrics and perinatal outcomes of dichorionic twin pregnancy following art with spontaneous pregnancy. materials and methods: in this cross-sectional study which was performed in ghaem hospital...

background: spontaneous preterm labor is one of the common obstetrics problems causing several physical, psychological and economical outcomes. although due to these outcomes and the efficacy of cares for decreasing them, preterm labor screening is cost-effective and it is still one of the challenging issues in obstetrics. objective: in this study preterm labor screening by using cervical trans...

OBJECTIVE We estimated the extent to which Canadian expectant parents would seek medical care in a febrile neonate (age 30 days or less). We also evaluated expectant parents' knowledge of signs and symptoms of fever in a neonate, and explored the actions Canadian expectant parents would take to optimize the health of their child. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional survey of a sample of ex...

Simulation in obstetrics allows us to practice in a safe environment. Simulations can improve the performance of individuals and obstetric teams. The evidence is overwhelming that, with simulated practice, obstetricians improve their technical and communication skills. Evidence is emerging that simulation ultimately may improve clinical outcomes. It stands to reason that simulation in obstetric...

Background: Although rare in modern obstetrics, emergency peripartum hysterectomy (EPH) remains a life-saving procedure, in the event of uncontrollable postpartum hemorrhage. Observations regarding the causes and outcomes of EPH provide valuable insights relevant to the current management perspectives in obstetrics. This study is intended to assess the contemporary prevalence, indications, and ...

OBJECTIVE To develop benchmarks for wait times for obstetrics and gynaecology. METHODS An expert panel reviewed the literature published from 1995 to September 30, 2007, and provided recommendations. EVIDENCE The benchmarks in this document were recommended by the SOGC ad hoc Committee on Wait Times, which includes members with expertise in obstetrics, gynaecology, urogynaecology, and gynae...
