Question

List a complication of labor and delivery and describe the appropriate treatment of this condition.

Answer 1

Ans) Complications during labor and delivery:

For example, preeclampsia (high blood pressure with protein in the urine) may lead to premature detachment of the placenta from the uterus (placental abruption) and problems in the newborn. Fetal distress, respiratory distress in the newborn, and uterine rupture are uncommon complications of labor.

Most probably treatment is emergency LSCS with adequate monitoring.

To decrease the risk by taking certain steps:

1. See your doctor before getting pregnant.
2. Know your risk factors.
3. Take a daily multivitamin before and during pregnancy.
4. Maintain a healthy weight.
5. Use medications wisely.
6. Take care of medical conditions before pregnancy
