Every pregnant woman expects a natural, safe and uncomplicated delivery. The outcome of pregnancy i.e. childbirth is a natural but at the same time very complex process. The time taken for normal labor in primigravida is 12h–14 h and latent phase of labor is expected not to exceed more than 8 h. Thus, any intervention that augments and eases labor is well accepted for mother and fetus. Apana Vayuis having pivotal role in regulating the process of labor. A woman, aged 27 years, primigravida with full term pregnancy and pain in lower abdomen for 7 h visited Rajiv Gandhi Govt. Post Graduate Ayurvedic College & Hospital, Paprola. She was given a soap water enema and kept under a close observation for 2 days. There was neither significant progress of labor nor the pain subsided with afore mentioned management. On the third day, she was given Matra Basti of Eranda Taila. This showed the therapeutic effect on progress of labor and ultimately safe delivery of baby. To evaluate any kind of fetal distress, APGAR score of neonate and umbilical cord arterial blood was collected for determination of pH value. Present case suggests an example to manage delayed labor with Eranda Taila Matra Bastiwithout any altered fetal parameters and fetal distress. |
