What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating delivery outcomes using the Artificial Intelligence Dystocia Algorithm (AIDA) method, which analyzes intrapartum ultrasound parameters such as Angle of Progression, Asynclitism degree, fetal head-symphysis distance, and midline angle. The study focuses on both eutocic (normal) and dystocic (difficult) labor, aiming to assess labor progress and predict outcomes including neonatal Apgar scores at 1 and 5 minutes. This approach addresses challenges in fetal head positioning that affect labor progression and delivery decisions. Participants will be monitored during labor using intrapartum ultrasound with clinical and obstetric parameters analyzed by the AIDA method. The AIDA system classifies labor into five categories based on these geometric parameters, helping to predict whether cesarean delivery will be necessary. This observational study follows women through labor and after birth, using artificial intelligence combined with physician decision support to evaluate labor progress and outcomes. During the study, women will undergo ultrasound monitoring and have their labor progress tracked by the AIDA analysis. Researchers will measure labor outcomes and neonatal health indicators over one year. Data collected includes ultrasound parameters, clinical assessments, and delivery results. The study aims to improve understanding of labor complications and support clinical decisions by providing detailed evaluations of fetal positioning and labor progression.

Your Study Journey
Duration - 2 to 4 weeks
Participants are screened for eligibility to participate in the trial.
1 visit (in-person)
Duration - From labor onset until birth
Participants are followed during labor and delivery with intrapartum ultrasound monitoring. Clinical, ultrasonographic, and obstetric parameters are collected and analyzed using the AIDA method to evaluate labor progress and predict delivery outcomes.
Continuous monitoring during labor
Duration - Up to 1 year after birth
Participants are monitored for labor and neonatal outcomes up to 1 year after delivery to assess the implications of AIDA analysis on birth results and neonatal health.
Follow-up visits as needed up to 1 year
