[Gestation of 42 weeks or longer. Management protocol].

We have evaluated, in a prospective approach to the perinatal results of 98 patients with gestation of 42 weeks and more. The patients with an uncertain gestation age were excluded. The vigilance of the fetus was realized by electronic monitorization, sonographic examination and amnioscopy 55.1% of patients begin labor spontaneously 44.9% were interrupted. The principals causes of interruption were pelvic score of bishop > 7 points and condition that suggest fetal injury. In 31.6% of patients a cesarean section was made. Neonatal morbidity was a 19.4% and we don't have mortality.
