Re-evaluation of modifiable risk factors for obstetric anal sphincter injury in a real-world setting
ConclusionsMediolateral episiotomy was protective against OASI in both spontaneous and instrumental deliveries of primiparae. Increased fetal weight and large fetal head circumference, particularly in short women, were significant risk factors. These findings support the performance of ultrasound to acquire updated fetal measures before admission to the labor ward. (Source: International Urogynecology Journal and Pelvic Floor Dysfunction)

Is the function of the core muscles affected during pregnancy?
ConclusionsIn women, the coactivation relationship between the core muscles may disappear during pregnancy. As the trimesters progress during pregnancy, a decrease in thickness and an increase in muscle activity can be observed in the core muscles. Pregnant women can be given exercise training for core muscles for protection in both the prenatal and postnatal periods. But more research needs to be done.
