This video covers the essential aspects of managing the third stage of labour, focusing on ensuring the mother’s well-being and preventing complications like postpartum haemorrhage (PPH). Key points include:
Assessment and Monitoring:
Observe uterine contractions immediately post-delivery.
Monitor blood loss and check for placental separation.
Regularly check maternal vital signs.
Active Management:
Administer oxytocin or alternative uterotonics.
Perform controlled cord traction (CCT) to assist placental delivery.
Conduct uterine massage to stimulate contraction.
Examination of Placenta and Membranes:
Ensure complete expulsion of the placenta and membranes.
Inspect for abnormalities like calcifications or knots in the umbilical cord.
PPH Prevention and Management:
Monitor for excessive bleeding and manage uterine atony.
Prepare for secondary interventions if necessary, including surgical options.
Post-Delivery Care:
Support maternal recovery with close monitoring and pain relief.
Encourage early breastfeeding to promote uterine contraction.
Offer emotional support and involve family in post-delivery care.
