        1. Abnormal Attitude: Fetal head is extended
        2. Results in largest head diameter: Occipitomental
        3. Increases diameter 3 cm (24%) over flexed head
        4. May results in Failure to Progress
      2. Face Presentation
      3. Brow Presentation
      4. Shoulder Presentation

        2. Sagittal Suture not in midline of vaginal canal
      2. Interpretation
        1. Mild Asynclitism is normal
        2. Extreme Asynclitism interferes with delivery
          1. May result in Failure to Progress
          2. Interferes with forceps application
