DEFINITION Vaginal cephalic delivery that requires
additional obstetric maneuvers to deliver the fetus after the head has delivered and gentle traction has failed.
An objective diagnosis of a prolongation of head-to-body delivery time of more than 60 seconds
Occurs in 1% of births (normal birth weight) and up to 10% of births of infants of higher birth weight (>4500g) 4

PREVALANCE Studies involving the largest number of
vaginal deliveries (34 800 to 267 228) report incidences between 0.58% and 0.70%
Macrosomia shows the strongest correlation with shoulder dystocia Occurs more often with gestational diabetes and
twice as often in postdate pregnancies In women without diabetes, labor induction for
suspected fetal macrosomia does not lower the rates of shoulder dystocia or cesarean delivery

There is a relationship between fetal size and shoulder dystocia but it is not a good predictor: partly because fetal size is difficult to determine
accurately large majority of infants with a birth weight of
≥4500g do not develop shoulder dystocia. Equally important, 48% of births complicated
by shoulder dystocia occur with infants who weigh less than 4000g

MCROBERTS AND SUPRAPUBIC PRESSURE McRoberts maneuver - flex the legs toward
the patient's chest to open the anterior posterior diameter of the pelvis
11Figure 1. The McRoberts' maneuvre
![Page 12: Shoulder dystocia](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061517/5695d06c1a28ab9b0292692e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
SUPRAPUBIC PRESSURE (RUBIN I) Suprapubic pressure – apply a “rolling”
pressure over the fetal anterior shoulder on mother’s lower abdomen so that the shoulder will adduct and pass under the symphysis
12Figure 2 Suprapubic pressure
![Page 13: Shoulder dystocia](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061517/5695d06c1a28ab9b0292692e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
RUBIN II MANEUVER Hand is inserted into the vagina Digital pressure is applied to the posterior
aspect of the anterior shoulder Push towards the fetal chest, rotating the
shoulders forward into an oblique diameter.
13
![Page 14: Shoulder dystocia](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061517/5695d06c1a28ab9b0292692e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
WOODS SCREW MANEUVER While maintaining pressure as above in the
Rubin II maneuver, a second hand locates the anterior aspect of the posterior shoulder.
Apply pressure to rotate the posterior shoulder.
Attempt delivery once the shoulders move into the oblique diameter.
If unsuccessful continue rotation through 180° and attempt deliver
14

REVERSE WOODS SCREW MANEUVER Apply pressure to the posterior aspect of the
posterior shoulder Attempt to rotate it through 180° in the
opposite direction to that described in the Wood Screw maneuver
15

POSTERIOR ARM Pass hand into the vagina over the chest of
the fetus to identify the posterior arm and elbow.
Apply pressure to the antecubital fossa to flex the elbow in front of the body, and/or grasp the posterior hand to sweep the arm across the chest and deliver the arm.
Rotate the fetus into the oblique diameter of the pelvis, or through 180°, bringing the anterior shoulder under the symphysis pubis

SHOULDER DYSTOCIA Do not persist in any one maneuver if it is not
immediately successful. Try another maneuver. NEVER apply fundal pressure - this can
further engage the anterior shoulder under the pubic bone.
Uterine relaxants (nitroglycerin or general anesthesia with halothane) may be needed to overcome the expulsive forces of the uterus.
Rotation of the patient onto all fours may also facilitate delivery by increasing the pelvic diameters and allowing better access to the posterior shoulder. 18

PREVENTION Control maternal weight gain Optimize glycemic control in diabetics If concern for LGA offer C-section if
efw>5000 gm in non-diabetics, if efw>4500 gm in diabetics
In high risk patients, the head and shoulder maneuver can be used (delivery of head and shoulders in one move without suctioning the nasopharynx after delivery of the head)
Be prepared - call for help23

DEFINITION Cord prolapsed: descent of the umbilical cord
through the cervix alongside (occult) or past the presenting part (overt) in the presence of ruptured membranes
Cord presentation : presence of the umbilical cord between the fetal presenting part and the cervix, with or without membrane rupture
27
![Page 28: Shoulder dystocia](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061517/5695d06c1a28ab9b0292692e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

TYPES Occult prolapse: the prolapsed cord is
contained within the uterus usually by the side of the presenting part unnoticed
Overt prolapse: the cord protrude into the vagina

Pulsation of cord on V/E
Suspect in unexplained fetal distress Variable decelerations Prolonged bradycardia
32
![Page 33: Shoulder dystocia](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061517/5695d06c1a28ab9b0292692e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
DELIVERY- IS BABY VIABLE? IUD - Aim for vaginal delivery Alive - aim for most expedient delivery
method Instrumental delivery – only if os full and
expecting a relatively easy and fast delivery
Otherwise crash Caesarean sectionemergency CS, regardless of indications, should be performed within 30 minutes from the time decision was made
33
![Page 34: Shoulder dystocia](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061517/5695d06c1a28ab9b0292692e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

MANAGEMENT Call for help Give explanations to the woman and her
birth partner Move the woman into the knee-chest or
exaggerated Sims’ position (see Appendix A) If syntocinon augmentation is in progress,
discontinue immediately Elevate the presenting part digitally or by
bladder filling
35
![Page 36: Shoulder dystocia](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061517/5695d06c1a28ab9b0292692e/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Avoid excessive handling of umbilical cord. If cord is presenting outside of vagina, it can
be replaced gently or wrapped in warmed saline-soaked gauze to prevent reactive vasoconstriction.
Continue to assess fetal heart rate Expedite the birth of the baby Transport the woman to the operating
theatre, if required
36
![Page 37: Shoulder dystocia](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061517/5695d06c1a28ab9b0292692e/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
RELIEVE CORD COMPRESSION Replace cord gently into vagina Place hand in vagina, cord cradled in palm Tips of fingers elevating presenting part Mother in trendelenburg or knee-chest position Fill bladder (16 Foley catheter, 500-800ml of
saline) Several studies have shown reduced perinatal
mortality with elevation of the presenting part by bladder filling.
Allow time for anaesthesia & transfer of the woman to the secondary or tertiary unit from other settings. 37

Continuation of relieving of cord compression during Induction of anaesthesia Placement of sterile sheet LSCS
Remove hands only when the surgeon tells you!
