Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 7
Abstract
Objective: To compare the maternal and neonatal morbidities between the Patwardhan technique and the conventional method for extraction of the fetus in second stage caesarean sections. Method: In this prospective study 80 caesarean sections in second stage of labour were analysed. All the cases were divided into two groups. One was Patwardhan technique group and another was conventional method group where baby was delivered as cephalic. Maternal and neonatal morbidities were compared between the two groups. Results: In this study it was found that extension of uterine incision, uterine artery injury, excessive bleeding and need for blood transfusion were significantly less in patwardhan group. However, there were no differences in neonatal outcomes in both the groups. Conclusion: Patwardhan technique is a safe, easy and preferred method of delivery during lower segment caesarean section in second stage of labour and needs to be employed more widely
