Study Notes
Stages of Labor
- Dilatation Stage (0-10 cm) involves enlarging, opening, and widening of the cervix.
True Labor vs. False Labor
- True Labor:
- Cannot be relieved by ambulation
- Pain is located at the back
- Bloody SHOW (a sign of labor)
- False Labor:
- Intermittent pain
- Pain is located at the abdomen
- Can be relieved by ambulation
- Braxton Hicks contractions
- White SHOW (a sign of false labor)
Preparation for Labor
- Patient should be NPO (nothing by mouth) to prevent aspiration during delivery
- KVO (Keep vein open) to maintain hydration
Key Concepts
- Passenger refers to the placenta, baby, and amniotic fluid
- Causes of prolonged or painful labor include distended bladder and abdomen
- Transfer to delivery room (DR) when patient reaches the transition phase (7-10 cm)
Phases of Labor
- Latent phase (0-3 cm): early labor
- Active phase (4-6 cm): moderate labor
- Transition phase (7-10 cm): advanced labor
Delivery Stage
- Full dilatation to delivery of baby
- Bulging of perineum indicates need for episiotomy (surgical incision of perineum)
- Perineorrhaphy: repair of perineum
- Episiorrhaphy: repair of episiotomy
- Crowning: encirclement of presenting part
- Rupture of BOW (bag of waters)
Amniotic Fluid
- Normal amniotic fluid: normohydramnios, straw or clear color
- Amniotomy: surgical rupture of membranes to shorten the second stage of labor
