Obstructed labour due to generally contracted pelvis - what does this mean
Obstructed labour due to generally contracted pelvis occurs when the pelvis is too narrow to allow the baby to pass through the birth canal during labour, resulting in labour not progressing despite contractions and the baby being unable to move further down the birth canal. this can cause serious health complications for both the mother and baby.
What happens during the disease - obstructed labour due to generally contracted pelvis
Obstructed labour is caused by a generally contracted pelvis, which is a condition in which the pelvic bones are abnormally close together. this restricts the amount of space available for the baby to pass through the birth canal, leading to a decrease in the size of the pelvic outlet and an increase in the size of the baby's head. as a result, the baby is unable to pass through the birth canal and labour becomes obstructed.
