PROBLEMS WITH THE PASSENGER• FETAL MALPOSITION - Occipitoposterior position• FETAL MALPRESENTATION - Vertex- brow, face, sincipital - Breech- complete, frank, footling - Shoulder• FETAL DISTRESS• PROLAPSED UMBILICAL CORD

• BROW PRESENTATION - part of the fetal head between the orbital
ridge and the anterior fontanel presents at the pelvic inlet.
- midway between full flexion and full extension
- unstable >>> face or occiput - fetal head cannot engage if this persists

extremities

Nursing Care of Clients During Breech Birth
• Assessment - LM; IE - Location of FHT - (+) meconium w/o signs of fetal distress• Analysis1. Risk for injury r/t difficult birth2. Knowledge deficit r/t complications associated with
breech birth3. Risk for suffocation of fetus r/t interruption of blood
flow secondary to cord compression
![Page 23: HIGH - -¶ RISK LABOR AND DELIVERY 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051614/551e3c7f497959ea398b47ab/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Implementation• Monitor FHT• Watch for prolapsed cord; if it occurs: - push presenting part/trendelenburg - keep prolapsed cord moist with sterile saline• Observe for frank meconium• Add Piper forceps for the delivery set-up if vaginal
birth is anticipated• Prepare for CS Evaluation1. Birth is safe for mother2. Fetus remains free from complications

• Prolapsed Umbilical Cord - loop of the umbilical cord w/c descends along
or beyond the presenting part.
2 Types:
a. Occult Prolapse – the cord may be contained w/in the uterus.
- cord often compressed by shoulder.
- membranes may be intact or ruptured
![Page 32: HIGH - -¶ RISK LABOR AND DELIVERY 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051614/551e3c7f497959ea398b47ab/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
b. Overt Prolapse • – protrusion of the cord in
advance of the presenting part through the cervical os or into the vagina.
- fetal membranes ruptured
- cord is visible or palpable on examination.

1. Passagea. Gynecoid
- normal female pelvis - ideal for childbirth - round shape pelvic inlet
b. Android - male pelvis - heart shaped pelvic inlet
c. Anthropoid - “ape like” pelvis - oval shaped pelvic inlet
d. Platypeloid - flattened pelvis - reverse oval shaped

• Hypotonic Uterus - contraction is weak; dilatation and effacement does not progress.
- oxytocin stimulation will be beneficial.
- occur during the active phase of labor
PROBLEMS WITH POWERS
![Page 45: HIGH - -¶ RISK LABOR AND DELIVERY 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051614/551e3c7f497959ea398b47ab/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Induction or Stimulation of Labor
• Elective Induction: 1. Pharmacologic means: - Vaginal insertion of Prostaglandin E2 cervix
softens and effaces - 8-12 hrs after prostaglandin E2, oxytocin infusion 2. Mechanical means: - amniotomy - laminaria insertion - nipple stimulation
![Page 46: HIGH - -¶ RISK LABOR AND DELIVERY 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051614/551e3c7f497959ea398b47ab/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
• Augmentation of Labor:
- assisting client when labor process is not progressing normally ( prolonged labor ) by pharmacologic or mechanical means
![Page 47: HIGH - -¶ RISK LABOR AND DELIVERY 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051614/551e3c7f497959ea398b47ab/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Nursing Care of Clients During Induction of Labor
• Assessment - Obstetric history - Maternal status: - Uterine contractions - Status of cervix, membranes - ultrasound findings - Level of anxiety - Fetal status: - Gestational age - (-) CPD - fetal monitor results
![Page 48: HIGH - -¶ RISK LABOR AND DELIVERY 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051614/551e3c7f497959ea398b47ab/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
• Nursing Diagnoses: 1. Anxiety r/t uncertainty of labor and birth process
2. Risk for infection r/t ruptured membranes
3. Pain r/t use of oxytocics
4. Risk for trauma r/t possibility of sustained contractions from oxytocin or fetal cord prolapse following amniotomy
![Page 49: HIGH - -¶ RISK LABOR AND DELIVERY 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051614/551e3c7f497959ea398b47ab/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Planning/Implementation• Prepare mother and labor coach for induction - explain all procedures - obtain informed consent• Remain with the patient at all times• Obtain and record baseline v/s, FHR,
contractions • Monitor pitocin administration - gradual increase drip rate till contractions
occur every 2 – 3 mins. - slow rate if (+)hypotension or tachycardia
![Page 50: HIGH - -¶ RISK LABOR AND DELIVERY 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051614/551e3c7f497959ea398b47ab/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
- D/C pitocin drip if: - sustained uterine contractions occur - fetal accelerations/decelerations persist - urinary flow decreases to 30 ml/hr - signs of abruptio placenta appear• Monitor effect of prostaglandin• Assist with amniotomy - maintain asepsis - monitor FHR immediately after rupture - Note time, color, amount of AF
![Page 51: HIGH - -¶ RISK LABOR AND DELIVERY 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051614/551e3c7f497959ea398b47ab/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
• Maintain hydration• Prepare for “E” CS if necessary
• Evaluation/Outcome1. Labor begins or increases and progresses to birth2. Pitocin causes no adverse effects3. Anxiety is decreased4. Client shows no signs of infection
![Page 52: HIGH - -¶ RISK LABOR AND DELIVERY 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051614/551e3c7f497959ea398b47ab/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
• Hypertonic Uterus – contractions are painfully strong and frequent
• but ineffective in producing effacement and dilatation. - Reposition patient and
administer analgesic. - Tocolytic drugs (ritodrine) may
be effective. - occur in the latent phase of labor.
![Page 53: HIGH - -¶ RISK LABOR AND DELIVERY 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051614/551e3c7f497959ea398b47ab/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
• Pelvic Dystocia - abnormalities in any of the 3 planes of the pelvis, inlet contraction, midplane and outlet contraction.
- Contraction is low
- Cervical dilatation and effacement does not
progress
- Fetus fails to descent in the pelvic planes.
