Prolonged second stage (of labour) - what does this mean
Prolonged second stage of labour is caused when the pushing phase of labour lasts for longer than two hours for a first baby or longer than one hour for a subsequent baby. this is usually due to inadequate uterine contractions, an unfavorable fetal position, an over-distended uterus, or an obstruction in the birth canal. it can also be caused by maternal exhaustion or fatigue.
What happens during the disease - prolonged second stage (of labour)
Prolonged second stage of labor is caused by an imbalance between the contractile force of the uterus and the resistance of the pelvic outlet. this can be due to a number of factors, including an overly large baby, a narrow pelvis, or an overly relaxed uterus. additionally, fatigue or lack of coordination between the mother and her healthcare provider can contribute to a prolonged second stage of labor.
