Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To evaluate the uterocervical angle (UCA) in the prediction of second trimester termination success of multiparous women.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Medical termination of pregnancy is a common procedure in obstetrics. In recent years, uterocervical angle (UCA) emerged as a new ultrasound parameter in the prediction of labor. Dziadosz et al concluded that the performance of UCA was even better than the cervical length in their cohort. A wide UCA during second trimester shown to have an increased risk of preterm labor and narrow angle was less likely to have labor.

The investigators are aimed to investigate predictive role of both cervical length and UCA in the termination of second trimester pregnancy.The investigators focused on multiparous women who are taking Foley baloon for the cervical preparation and aim to measure their UCA.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Medical abortion

150 singleton multiparous patients are planning to complete the study period. Study group constitute of second trimester pregnancies between 14-24 weeks of gestation. All participants were multiparous and had no systemic illnesses. The uterocervical angle will be measured in all participants before the induction of labor.
