Special Issue on Labor and Delivery

Labor and Delivery generally follows a pattern — the cervix softening and opening; the amniotic sac rupturing; the contractions getting stronger and closer together. Sometimes, however, labor and delivery takes surprising twists and turns.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original researches 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
• Episiotomies
• Pain control
• Multiple birth
• Childbirth complications

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 at 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.
