Stages of Labour • Normal Labour – 37 to 42 weeks gestation • Roles of hormones • Prostaglandin - ↓ cervical resistance (cervical ripening) + ↑ release of Oxytocin from Post. Pituitary • Oxytocin – Stimulate Uterine Contraction • Diagnosis of Labour • Painful regular progressive uterine contractions • Cervical Dilatation + Effacement - Commonly with Show (pink/white mucus plug) &/or Rupture of membranes The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Stages of Labour The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
1st Stage • Latent Phase • Nulliparous ♀ usually up to 18h • Multiparous ♀ ~12h • Active Phase • Nulliparous ♀: 0.5 – 1 cm/h • Multiparous ♀: 1 – 2cm/h • Suspect Failure to progress/ Abnormal labour if • Protracted <2cm dilatation in 4 hours OR • Protracted/ Arrested Descent/ Slowing of progress in Multips The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Abnormal 1st stage and causes • (a) Inefficient uterine contractions • Commonest in Nulliparous ♀ (problem with “Power”) • Mx: Amniotomy & Syntocinon to augment labour • (b) Cephalopelvic disproportion CPD • Commonest in Multiparous ♀ • Problem with “passenger” i.e. malposition/malpresentation or “passage” i.e. inadequate pelvis • May lead to secondary arrest(previously good contractions). Signs = Caput & Moulding • Mx: usually C-section The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
2nd Stage • Prolonged 2nd stage: • Nulliparous ♀: Not delivered aft 2h of active pushing • Multiparous ♀: Not delivered aft 1h of active pushing • Mx: • Assisted Vaginal Delivery • C-section The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
3rd Stage • Physiological Management • No Syntometrine/Syntocinon given • Cord allowed to stop pulsating before clamping & cutting • Placenta delivered by maternal effort alone (↑ risk of haemorrhage) • Change to active if haemorrhage/placenta not delivered by 1h • Active Management (↓ rate of PPH) • IM Syntometrine/ Syntocinon • Deferred Clamping & Cutting of cord • Controlled cord traction (push down suprapubically; prevent uterine inversion) The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
