[Inducing labor with intracervical prostaglandin (PG) gel administration. A comparative analysis of 171 patients with 2 different preparations of PGE2 with regard to course of labor and fetal outcome].

In the present study we examined whether the difference in viscosity of two prostaglandins applied intracervically for induction of labour influences course of labour and fetal outcome. A comparative analysis was carried out in 171 patients, which received either Cerviprost (n = 85) or Prepidil (n = 86) at 6 hour intervals. The results show that the viscosity of the PG E2 has no influence on the course of induction of labour, the mode of delivery or on fetal outcome. The low viscosity does also not present an increased risk for uterine overstimulation, even in case of intracervical application.

[Clinical problems of premature labor. 1. Diagnosis of threatening premature labor and the screening procedure].

At first the allround etiology of premature birth is explained in the paper. There are to distinguish three groups: 1. Causes with known etiologic mechanism. 2. Causes with partly known etiologic mechanism. 3. Dispositions for premature birth. These are concluded from statistically investigations. In the last group are collected the patients from which are established some known scores for diagnosis of the risk of premature birth. All the scores but have a detriment. If they want to detect about 90% from premature births one must carry out examination and observation about 40% from all pregnant women. For this the scores are not suitable for selection of patients to observe in a special consultation. The organised care for pregnant women must be in such a way that all the criterias of imminent prematurity will be detected. This way has been successfull in our hospital.

[Clinical problems of premature labor. 2. Therapy of threatening and actual premature labor].

The therapy of imminent prematurity needs specific treatment of the respective illness. Moreover there are three fundamental measures: 1. To appease the patients and to applicate sedatives. 2. To carry out tokolysis with medicamentes. 3. To carry out cerclage operation in order to close the uterine mouth. These possibilities must be combined in various ways dependent from the success in every individual case. These measures also are suit in prophylaxis, for example in disorders of former pregnancies. All schemes of therapy adapted to the individual case. The dosis must be determined from the effect of therapy. A particular view point must be the hospitalisation between 28. and 32. week of pregnancy in cases of twins or placenta previa. Also in cases of early rupture of amnion prolongation of pregnancy must be aspired.

Special report on labor and employment. The Department of Labor issues final regulations for the federal Family and Medical Leave Act.

The FMLA is a complicated and comprehensive regulatory scheme, and it is impossible to review any but the most basic provisions in this article. The final regulations provide very detailed guidance on such issues as benefits continuation, reinstatement rights, notice requirements, and enforcement measures. Personnel policies and practices must be revised to be consistent with these final regulations, and care must be taken that leave policies do not restrict rights under the FMLA or unintentionally create expanded leave rights. In complying with the FMLA, employers must also keep in mind that there are complex interplays between the federal FMLA, state laws that provide family and medical leave, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and state workers' compensation laws, that can require expert advice depending on the particular circumstances.
