Summary

The study aims to compare maternal and early neonatal outcomes of abdominal disimpaction with lower uterine segment support in comparison to the classic "push" method for delivery of impacted fetal head during Cesarean section for obstructed labor.

Conditions

  • Dystocia

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Cesarean section

Abdominal disimpaction with lower uterine segment support: the edge of the lower uterine segment is grasped by 3-4 modified Allies forceps (with broader jaws) applied along the lower edge of the incision until it is completely supported. These forceps are handled by the assistant, and gentle traction is applied upward, perpendicular to the uterine surface and away from the fetal head without excessive force. Accordingly, the hand of the surgeon could be inserted into the uterine cavity, and adequate space for manipulations is available without applying pressure on the lower segment. The fetal head is eventually grasped and delivered. Classic push method: delivering the head with assistance by pushing the fetal head vaginally
