Conclusion:
A pilot study showed that simulation using video and high fidelity simulators can substitute for clinical experience for teaching breech delivery with retention of skills at one and three month intervals.

Conclusions:
Duration of HPV infection was not a significant risk factor for spontaneous PTB <37 weeks.
Cervical HPV DNA and HPV serology may further delineate the relationship between HPV infection and SPTB <37 weeks.
A larger sample size may be necessary to show a difference.
The 3.5x higher rate of fetal death > 23 weeks in our study (compared to fetal death > 20 weeks in the U.S.) needs further investigation.

Conclusions:
Among women with a cerclage, pre-pregnancy BMI was not a significant predictor of SPTB <35 weeks.
There was a non-significant trend toward increased rates of SPTB at all gestational age cutoffs.
Morbidly obese women consistently had worse outcomes than obese and normal/overweight women.
Compared to normal/overweight, GA at delivery decreases by 1 week for obese and 2 weeks for morbidly obese women.

Conclusions:
More selective indications for cervical cerclage based on recent randomized studies were associated with decreased cerclage placement.
The decrease in incidence of history-indicated cerclage may be due to the fact that more women with prior PTB are being followed by transvaginal cervical length measurements.
The decrease in incidence of ultrasound-indicated cerclage may be due to the use of 17-hydroxy progesterone caproate in women with PTB.
