Labour is described as the process by which the foetus, placenta and membranes are expelled through the birth canal. Normal labour occurs when the foetus is born at term and presents by the vertex and the process is completed spontaneously by the natural unaided efforts of the mother.
The care plan varies according to which stage of labour the patient is in. Although the transition from first to the second stages of labour does not always have a clear distinction clinically but one can assume the patient is in second stage once the membrane is ruptured (as seen in this case scenario)or presenting part is appearing etc. But one could assume the patient is in the transition phase of the first stage since the cervical dialation is 8cm and the contractions are within an interval of 2-3 mintues.
The care plan
:Clean clothing and changing of soiled bed linen could do a great deal in providing the patient with a better adjustment to the situation.
: cramp in the leg can be very distressing and the nurse can assist the patient to extend the leg and bring the toes towards the knee.
