Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
prediction of latent phase duration by uterocervical angle in post term pregnancies	5 months	In patients diagnosed with late term pregnancy, the uterocervical angle and cervical length were measured by transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) at the time of admission to the delivery room before labor induction.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
