English term or phrase: Cervix landmark
Hi,

Could you help me with this term?

This is a birth simulator machine and one of the features of its performance is "Cervix landmark".
Other features are for example Uterine compression, Bleeding and Delivery of placenta.

I don't really have much more context for this.

Thanks!

kohdunkaulan avautuminen, kohdunnapukka
Explanation:
I suppose it means that the student needs to be able to assess the cervix landmark to see how the delivery is progressing, but I'm not entirely sure whether it means the opening of the cervix (kohdunkaulan avautuminen) or the location of the cervix (kohdunnapukka), but hopefully this might help you forward with the search of the right term.

Example sentence(s):
  • Synnytyksen lähestyessä kohdunkaulaan ilmestyy proteinaasi- ja peptidaasientsyymejä, jotka muuttavat kollageenisäikeet löyhemmiksi. Samalla polymorfonukleaaristen valkosolujen määrä kohdunkaulan alueella suurenee.
