1 Purpose:
2 Equipment:
▪ Watch with second hand, V/S machine, CTG, sterile gloves, clean
gloves, gel, betadine solution & skin cleanser
delivery set (2 artery forceps, 1 bandage scissors, 1 surgical
scissors, gauze, kidney basin, bowl, 3 ml syringe with needle)
episiotomy set (tissue forceps, needle holder, suture scissor,
gauze, 10 ml syringe with needle, lidocaine, suture)
3 Transfer and position the woman in the birthing bed (lithotomy position),
when it is almost ready to give birth. The exact time varies with several
factors such as overall speed of labor and descent of the fetal head.
6 Elevate the woman’s back, shoulders, and head with a wedge (on a
delivery table) or by raising the head of the birthing bed.
7 Place the woman’s legs in stirrups simultaneously. Do not separate her
legs widely.
After the woman is in position. cleanse the perineal area with a sterile
iodophor ( povidone) and water preparation unless she is allergic. Use
warm water to dilute the iodophor scrub. Take a fresh sponge to begin
each new area, and do not return to a clean area with a used sponge.
Six sponges are needed. The proper order and motions are as follows:
12 As the vaginal orifice encircles the fetal head, apply a gentle pressure
to the woman’s perineum with one hand while applying a counter
pressure to the fetal head with the other hand (RITGEN’S
MANEUVER). Ask the mother to blow so that she avoids pushing, or
to push gently.
13 Wipe the secretion from the infant’s face and suction the nose and
mouth with a bulb syringe
14 Feel for a cord around the fetal neck (nuchal cord). If it is loose,
slipped it over the head. If tight, clamped and cut between two clamps
before the rest of the baby’s body is born
The rest of the infant’s body is born quickly after the shoulders are born.
Maintain the infant’s head in a slightly head – dependent position while
suctioning excess secretions with a bulb syringe.
17 Use two artery forceps to clamp the cord and cut between the forceps;
or use a disposable plastic cord clamp then cut the cord above the
clamp (distal portion). The father can also cut the cord.
18 Collect sample of cord blood.
28 Resume feeding for patients who have vaginal birth (<6 hours)
