ABSTRACT
Antepartum evaluation of the cervix is a necessary procedure in obstetric practice to predict
the response to pre-induction, induction, and onset of labor according to cervix ripening.
The review aims to provide one more tool to evaluate the condition of the cervix before the
labor by means of cross evaluation of its speculum examination, as an alternative that can
be used in obstetrics. The method, besides being useful and noninvasive, reduces
interobserver variability.
