S1-Guideline: Management of Late-term and Post-term Pregnancy: Short version - AWMF Registry Number: 015/065.

Abstract

The guidelines published by Scientific Medical Societies in Germany are aids which have been systematically developed to assist physicians when making decisions in specific situations. The guidelines are based on current scientific knowledge and on established methods which have been proven in practice; the aim is to improve safety in medicine but also to take economic aspects into account. The guidelines are not legally binding for physicians and therefore the guidelines neither create liability nor do they constitute a release from liability. AWMF takes the greatest care when registering and publishing the guidelines of different scientific societies; nevertheless, AWMF cannot be held responsible for the accuracy of their contents.
