  3. Birth Related Procedures • Version • Cervical Ripening • Induction / Augmentation • Amniotomy • Amnioinfusion • Episiotomy • Assisted Vaginal Birth: • Forceps-assisted birth • Vacuum Extraction • Cesarean Section • VBAC

  4. Version- turning the fetus • External Cephalic Version is the changing of the fetal presentation from breech, transverse lie or oblique lie to a cephalic presentation. • Podalic Version is used only with the second twin during a vaginal birth.

  7. External Cephalic Version • May be attempted after 36-37 weeks gestation. • Criteria: • Single fetus • Not engaged • Adequate amount of amniotic • fluid • A Reactive NST

  8. External Cephalic Version Contraindications • Suspected IUGR • Fetal Anomalies • Abnormal FHR Pattern • Rupture of Membranes • Cesarean birth indications • Maternal Problems-GDM, Preeclampsia/eclampsia cardiac disease etc. • Amniotic Fluid abnormalities • Other

  9. External Cephalic Version Done in Labor Unit Client is NPO for least 8 hours Ultrasound for : single fetus, AFI, location of placenta, position and presentation of fetus and cord Vital signs NST Blood type and Rh and antibody screen Informed consent IV started with LR Possible Tocolytic medications

  10. Cervical Ripening • Softening and effacing of the cervix • Can be done with several agents: • Prostaglandin E2( PGE2) gel • Dinoprostone ( Cervidil)- • vaginal insert • Dinoprostone ( Prepidil) • Misoprostol ( Cytotec) • Can be done prior to induction with Pitocin

  12. Induction or Augmentation of Labor • Labor Induction is the stimulation of uterine contractions before the spontaneous onset of labor. • Labor Augmentation is the stimulation of uterine contractions after labors onset and there is failure in progression of cervical dilation or descent of fetus.

(AROM) • Before procedure : • Do pericare • Assess for contraindications or risk factors. • Assess the fetus for presentation, position, station, and FHR • Prep bed for fluid • Immediately after: • Assess FHR • Check fluid color and amount

  16. Amnioinfusion • It is a procedure by which warm, sterile saline is put into the uterus via an IUPC. It can be used to increase volume of fluid in oligohydramnios, decrease pressure on cord ,or dilute meconium. • First place IUPC • Assess FHR • Bolus 150-250 ml of saline using infusion pump over20-30 minutes • Monitor vital signs, FHR ,and contraction status and resting tone

  17. Episiotomy

  18. Episiotomy • It is a surgical incision into the perinium. • Types: • Midline • Mediolateral • Episiorrhaphy is a repair of the episiotomy or any lacerations.
