PANOUS Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: RetractorExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Research team members will apply a pannus retractor adhesive according to manufacturer's directions. The sonographer will be asked to attempt all views of the detailed anatomic survey before the adhesive is removed. If the sonographer thinks that additional views could be obtained with the adhesive removed using transabdominal or transvaginal imaging, this is acceptable based on the pragmatic design of this study.
Group II: No retractorActive Control1 Intervention
The detailed anatomic survey will proceed per normal protocol. Approaches may include transabdominal and transvaginal imaging.
