Pelvic measurement

The pelvis is the indispensable passage for a fetus. Its size, shape, and length of each diameter are directly related to whether the delivery can be performed smoothly. Clinical methods for measuring the pelvis include extra-pelvic and intra-pelvic measurements. Extra-pelvic measurement can indirectly reflect the size and shape of the pelvis, while intra-pelvic measurement can directly reflect the size and shape of the pelvis. This is to determine whether the pelvis is commensurate and determine whether the fetus can be delivered via vagina. Essential item.
