BREECH PRESENTATION Flashcards
Is it a breech deliver doctor?
yes according the findings your baby is in breech deliver?
questions to ask
-whats your prefereable mode of delivery
-tell me about your previous pregnancy
(NVD with 41 weeks although child was 4)
-ANC course? normal
-any family hx of DM or other problems
advice
-this is a breech presentation in labour
-type is a extended breech which is favourable, so we can attempt for vaginal delivery as you are not keen on CS
-X RAY PELVIMETRY
not needed as previous pregnancy no issues, second baby maybe larger but because b4 date can expect to be smaller
-CTG
required, chance of cord prolapse, vaginal exam after membrane rupture to exclude prolapse,
-USS
diccicult to arrange urgently, but of value if diagnosed previous to check fetal size, presentation, extension of neeck
-C SECTION
indicated if slow progress, CTG abnormal 1st stage,
-overall successful outcome can be expected, but 305 percent chance of problems in latter stages of delivering arms legs
Vaginal delivery?
-risk to baby higher than c section
