Modified Bishop score [ edit ] According to the Modified Bishop's pre-induction cervical scoring system, effacement has been replaced by cervical length in cm, with scores as follows: 0 for >3 cm, 1 for >2 cm, 2 for >1 cm, 3 for >0 cm. [ 6 ] Cervical length may be easier and more accurate to measure and have less inter-examiner variability.
Cervical effacement is an important component of the Bishop score and is reported as a percentage. 0% indicates the cervix is at normal length, 50% indicates the cervix is half of the expected length and 100% effaced means the cervix is paper thin. [10] The Bishop score has been modified in current medical practice.
A Bishop Score is done to assess the progression of the cervix prior to an induction. In order to do this, the cervix must be checked to see how much it has effaced, thinned out, and how far dilated it is. The score goes by a points system depending on five factors.
The Bishop score can also be used as a means to predict the success of an induction of labour. During effacement, the cervix becomes incorporated into the lower segment of the uterus. During a contraction, uterine muscles contract causing shortening of the upper segment and drawing upwards of the lower segment, in a gradual expulsive motion. [ 47 ]
The Modified Median system is similar to the Median system, except: Players with exactly 50% score are handled as in the regular Median system; Players with more than 50% score have only their lowest-scoring opponent's score discarded; Players with less than 50% score have only their highest-scoring opponent's score discarded.

If this happens then the winner is decided as follows: each yari rook or yari bishop scores 5 points for the owning player, and all other pieces (except generals) score 1 point each. Promotions are ignored for the purposes of scoring. A player scoring less than 26 points loses. If both players have at least 26 points, then the game is no contest.
Virgin Australia crew members were allegedly sexually assaulted and robbed in one of Fiji's nightclub areas on New Year's Day, the island country's Deputy Prime Minister Viliame Gavoka announced.
just under 2 pawns if it is unpaired R vs N, but less if the rook is paired, and a bit less still if the minor piece is an unpaired bishop; one pawn if it is paired R vs paired B; 2B + P = R + N with extra rooks on the board; 2N > R + 2P, especially with an extra pair of rooks; 2B = R + 3P with extra rooks on the board
