2. Encourage the patient to empty the bladder The patient should be
advised to void, as an
empty bladder

allows for more

rate is generally
obtained by placing a

are determined. The
presenting part is
engaged when it
moves high enough
for an examiner's
hands to be pushed

settled into the pelvis)
2. Identify the presenting part. If the presenting
portion is not
moveable, it is not
engaged. If it is still
moveable, it is not yet
engaged.
3. Determine the mobility of the presenting part. If the fetal head is
above the pelvic brim,
it will be easily
