Obstetrical and perinatal consequences of childbirth in women at 41-42 weeks of gestation

Abstract

Postterm pregnancy is one of the urgent problems in obstetrics, which is due to the increase in the frequency of perinatal morbidity and mortality in this category of patients. Many questions remain regarding the correct determination of the term of pregnancy, detection of early and reliable signs of pregnancy, prediction of complications of pregnancy and delivery period, choice of delivery tactics and possible date of the start of birth stimulation.
