Other specified obstructed labour - what does this mean
Other specified obstructed labour is a type of labour complication where the baby is unable to pass through the birth canal due to a physical blockage. this blockage can be caused by a variety of factors, such as a large baby, pelvic deformities, a malpositioned baby, or a uterine fibroid. in some cases, the blockage can be resolved by manual manoeuvres, but in other cases, a caesarean section may be necessary.
What happens during the disease - other specified obstructed labour
Other specified obstructed labour is a condition in which the normal progress of the labour process is blocked due to a mechanical obstruction, such as an abnormally narrow birth canal or an abnormally large fetus. this can lead to a decrease in uterine contractions, an increase in the fetal head circumference, and prolonged labour. if left untreated, the obstruction can cause maternal exhaustion, fetal distress, and even death.
