Jeffrey Kuller, MD, and colleagues, have developed PROLOG: Obstetrics, a newly released ACOG publication used by residents 
and practitioners. Following a 2-year development process, Dr. Kuller and task force members collaborated on the newly revised eighth edition, which provides updated data, techniques, and best practice recommendations, including the following:
- Understanding of maternal and fetal physiology
- Identification of components of antepartum care that optimize maternal and perinatal outcomes
- Efficacious and cost-effective management of obstetric conditions
- Invasive and noninvasive methods of fetal assessment in the antepartum period
- Risks, indications, predictive value, and physiologic basis for antepartum tests
- Management strategies for intrapartum care and delivery
- Medical–legal principles, risk management, and office management guidelines in obstetric practice
