Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a delivery progress evaluation device, a delivery progress evaluation method and a program.
  • Non-Patent Document 1 As a technique related to transperineal ultrasonography during delivery, there is a technique for measuring the pelvic angle of a pregnant woman in the third trimester of pregnancy based on CT images (for example, Non-Patent Document 1).
  • the first is called "station". It uses the advanced part of the fetal head to indicate the degree of descent of the fetal head. That is, it is considered that the station when the tip of the baby's head reaches the level of the ischial spine of the mother is set to 0, and at this time, the baby's head has invaded the pelvic brim.
  • the stations are set to +5, +4, +3, +2, +1, 0, -1, -2, -3, -4, -5 according to the degree of descent of the baby's head.
  • the station is an index for determining the delivery method when an urgent delivery is required. That is, if the station value is larger than a certain value (that is, if the baby's head is below the position), vaginal delivery can be safely performed by forceps / suction delivery, or if the station value is smaller than a certain value (that is, if the station value is smaller than a certain value). That is, if the baby's head is above a certain position), it can be judged that forceps / suction delivery is dangerous to the baby and therefore a caesarean section is necessary in principle.
  • FIG. 1 is a view of a human bone birth canal from the left side of the body.
  • the area of the bone birth canal is anatomically classified as merkmal at the inferior pubic margin, midpoint of the pubis, ischial spine, tip of the sacrum, and second / third sacral fusion.
  • the bone birth canal is described as an entrance surface, a high presence, a high middle presence, a low middle presence, a low presence, and an exit portion in order from the top.
  • the straight line L1 is a straight line connecting the lower edge of the pubic symphysis and the tip of the sacrum, and forms a boundary between the low position and the exit portion.
  • the straight line L3 is a straight line connecting the midpoint of the posterior surface of the pubic symphysis and the second / third sacral fusion site, and forms the boundary between high and low midpoint. As the delivery progresses, the fetal head descends from the entrance surface toward the exit part of the bone birth canal.
  • Doctors and midwives grasp the positional relationship between the maximum passage surface of the baby's head and the pelvis by pelvic examination, and evaluate the progress of delivery according to the position of the maximum passage surface in the birth canal.
  • the maximum passage surface of the baby's head is located in the bone birth canal is an index for determining the delivery method in an emergency. That is, if the maximum passage surface is located below the low position, it is possible to safely deliver vaginal delivery by forceps / suction delivery in an emergency, or if it is located above the high level, a caesarean section is required. If it is located, it is possible to make a judgment such as the judgment of the person in charge of delivery and the selection of the delivery method according to the technique.
  • pelvic examination in general, it is difficult to learn the evaluation by the above-mentioned pelvic examination, and it depends on the individual skill and experience. For this reason, there is a problem that accuracy and objectivity are lacking only by pelvic examination. In particular, since pelvic examination cannot be visualized, safety and accuracy cannot be objectively evaluated.
  • Angle of Assessment is one of the parameters for evaluating the descent of the fetal head in the transperineal ultrasound method. AoP is defined as the angle between the straight line connecting the upper and lower pubic edges and the tangent line drawn from the lower end of the pubis to the tip of the fetal head.
  • Non-Patent Document 1 The technique described in Non-Patent Document 1 is for pregnant women (458 people) in the third half of pregnancy in France, a straight line passing through the upper end of the pubis and the lower end of the pubis and a straight line passing through the lower end of the pubis and the midpoint of the ischial spine (described above).
  • This measurement gave a result of 110 °.
  • This result provides an anatomical index that can be applied as one of the criteria for transperineal ultrasonography.
  • Non-Patent Document 1 "the angle between the straight line passing through the upper end of the pubis and the lower end of the pubis and the straight line corresponding to the above-mentioned straight line L1" and “the straight line passing between the upper end of the pubis and the lower end of the pubis and the above-mentioned straight line L3". No results have been obtained for the "angle formed by the corresponding straight line”. That is, the technique described in Non-Patent Document 1 does not sufficiently clarify the angle that defines the classification of the bone birth canal region. In this respect, it cannot be said that the technique is sufficient as a technique for evaluating the progress of labor using the maximum passage surface.
