The Leopold maneuvers, named after the German obstetrician and gynecologist Christian Gerhard Leopold (1846–1911), are part of the physical examination of pregnant women.[1][2] Four classical maneuvers are used to palpate the gravid uterus systematically. This method of abdominal palpation is of low cost, easy to perform, and non-invasive. It is used to determine the position, presentation, and engagement of the fetus in utero.
