| Popis: | Background and objective: Obstructed labor is a serious intrapartum emergency especially seen in women deprived of modern healthcare delivery. It could be one of the major reasons of morbidity and mortality for both the mother and the newborn. This study was aimed at determine the rate, causes and perinatal outcomes of women who have obstructive labor during delivery. Methods: A cross-sectional study that was conducted on 150 delivering women having obstructed labor at Maternity Teaching Hospital, Erbil city, Kurdistan Region, Iraq from 1st of March 2021 to 1st of March 2022 The rate, socio-demographic characters (age, parity, smoking, antenatal care, residency, education level, gestational age), causes like (malposition, malpresntation, cephalo-pelvic desorption) and perinatal outcomes were recorded. Results: of 9137 labor, 150 were obstructed labor; the total rate was 1.6% during the period of the study. There was no statistically significant associated between socio-demographic characters like age, smoking, gestational age, residency, education level, antenatal care and obstructed labor except multiparity that has significant association. There was a significant association between the causes like cephalo-pelvic disproportion, malposition, malprsentation, sized baby and having fracture to spine and pelvis or trauma and obstructed labor. Also there was no statistically significant associated between Apgar score and admission to neonatal intensive care unit. Conclusion: Obstructive labor is common during labor. Malposition was most common the cause of obstructive labor and parity has association with it too. Neonatal morbidity and mortality are dependent on the type of presentation. |
