** Latent Phase (0-6 cm dilation): Protraction of latent phase is defined as greater than '''14 hours (multip) or 20 hours (nullip) without change in dilation'''.
  −
** Active Phase (6-10 cm dilation): '''Protraction of active phase''' is defined as ≤1 cm dilation in 2 hr; manage with Pitocin. '''Arrest''' is defined as no change in 4 hours (with adequate contractions) or 6 hours (without adequate contractions); management includes placing an IUPC catheter to determine if contractions are adequate, if yes: C-section, if no: AROM or Pitocin.
  −
*2nd stage (active pushing)
  −
** Arrest is defined as no change in fetal station in 1-3 hrs (depending on parity and use of neuraxial anesthesia); management is to reduce epidural rate, give Pitocin, consider C-section or forceps delivery.

*3rd stage (delivery of the placenta)

*UTI (and asymptomatic bacteriuria) treatment in pregnancy: get a urine culture; treat with '''Fosfomycin (single dose), Augmentin (5-7 days), Cephalexin or Cefpodoxime (5-7 days)'''; Test for cure one week after completion of antibiotics.

*First line treatment of PCOS is weight loss.
