Patient's question:
My wife is already nine months pregnant and will be reaching her due date in a few days. These days, I'm planning to accompany her to the hospital for her final prenatal check-up. I'd like to ask in advance what kind of detailed check-up is done during the final stage of labor? What are the major items included, and how much will it cost? I'm looking for help from those with experience!Doctor's answer:
If you go to the hospital before going into labor, it is usually done through an ultrasound to check the current condition of the amniotic fluid, the fetal position, and to see the size of the fetus. Generally, these detailed examinations are sufficient. If a cesarean section is to be performed, this also requires routine preoperative examinations, such as blood tests and checks for many infectious diseases.
