Special Issue on Labor and Delivery

There are three stages of labor in the process of normal childbirth: the dilation and effacement of the cervix, descent and birth of the infant, and the expulsion of the placenta. Excruciating pain in the process is inevitable. How to manage the pain? How to deal with the Emergency? What about the unusual childbirths?

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Labor and Delivery. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Cesarean
• Natural labor
• Premature labor
• Water birth
• Labor induction
• Pain control
• Multiple birth

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Labor and Delivery” should be selected during your submission.
