Objective: In a previous randomized trial that compared monitoring uterine contractions with an intrauterine pressure catheter (IUPC) versus external monitoring, we demonstrated that use of an IUPC did not improve the outcome of labor. To provide ins... Read More about Does measurement of intrauterine pressure have predictive value during oxytocin-augmented labor?.
