The present invention provides a medical device for measuring cervical
dilation, where the medical device is positionable about a hand having
first and second fingers, with each finger having a tip and a side
surface. The medical device may include a housing, a first extension
element movably coupled to the housing, a second extension element
movably coupled to the housing, and a dilation indication mechanism to
measure a distance between the first and second extension elements. The
medical device may also include a first lateral pressure sensor
positionable about a side surface of the first finger, a second lateral
pressure sensor positionable about a side surface of the second finger, a
third pressure sensor positionable about a tip of the first finger, and a
fourth pressure sensor positionable about a tip of the second finger.
