Abstract

How and when should the fetus be monitored during labour?In the absence of good-quality evidence, intrapartum fetal monitoring for obese women in labour should be provided in accordance with NICE CG190 recommendations. PHow and when should the fetus be monitored post dates in women with obesity?There is a lack of definitive data to recommend routine monitoring of post dates pregnancy.However, obese pregnant women should be made aware that they are at increased risk of stillbirth. D Planning labour and birthWhat should be discussed with women with maternal obesity regarding labour and birth?Women with maternal obesity should have an informed discussion with their obstetrician and anaesthetist (if clinically indicated) about a plan for labour and birth which should be documented in their antenatal notes. PWomen who are multiparous and otherwise low risk can be offered choice of setting for planning their birth in midwifery-led units (MLUs), with clear referral pathways for early recourse to consultant-led units (CLUs) if complications arise. CActive management of the third stage should be recommended to reduce the risk of postpartum haemorrhage (PPH). AIs maternal obesity an indication for induction of labour?Elective induction of labour at term in obese women may reduce the chance of caesarean birth without increasing the risk of adverse outcomes; the option of induction should be discussed with each woman on an individual basis. BIs maternal obesity an indication for caesarean section?The decision for a woman with maternal obesity to give birth by planned caesarean section should involve a multidisciplinary approach, taking into consideration the individual woman's comorbidities, antenatal complications and wishes. CIs macrosomia and maternal obesity an indication for induction of labour and/or caesarean section?Where macrosomia is suspected, induction of labour may be considered.Parents should have a discussion about the options of induction of labour and expectant management.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
