The Antepartum Cervix Change and Birth Canal Relationship Model is a conceptual framework used in obstetrics to understand the relationship between the cervix and the birth canal during pregnancy and childbirth. This model helps healthcare providers anticipate and manage labor and delivery. The main components of this model include: Cervical Effacement: Effacement refers to the thinning and shortening of the cervix in preparation for delivery. The Antepartum Cervix Change and Birth Canal Relationship Model recognizes that effacement is an important indicator of progress in labor. As the cervix becomes fully effaced, it allows for easier passage of the baby through the birth canal. Cervical Dilation: Dilation refers to the opening of the cervix during labor. The model acknowledges that as the cervix dilates, it creates a larger opening for the baby to pass through. Progress in cervical dilation is often monitored during labor to assess the progression of labor. Pelvic Structure: The birth canal is composed of the pelvic bones and soft tissues. The Antepartum Cervix Change and Birth Canal Relationship Model emphasizes that the size and shape of the pelvis can influence the ease of passage for the baby during childbirth. An adequately sized and shaped pelvis can facilitate a smoother labor process. In addition to these components, healthcare providers also rely on various training models and manikins to enhance their skills and knowledge in providing quality care. Some of these models include the Full Body Trauma Manikin, which is used for Trauma Training and simulation scenarios, and the Intravenous Injection Arm, which helps healthcare professionals practice accurate intravenous injections. Another crucial model is the Mattress Sutures Model, which allows practitioners to practice suturing techniques for wound closure. By integrating the Antepartum Cervix Change and Birth Canal Relationship Model with specialized training models like these, healthcare providers can develop the necessary skills and expertise to effectively manage labor and delivery, ensuring the safety and well-being of both the mother and the baby.
Features:
1. Consists of 6 cervical change and birth canal change module
2. It can show the dilation of the cervix, the change of the cervix canal and the relationship between the fetal head and the ischial spine
3. Changes in various parts during the expansion period
