Background: Women delivering in upright position have shorter labour due to efficient and stronger contractions with faster descent of foetal head. The present study aimed to find out effect of upright kneeling position in the second stage of labour on maternal and foetal outcome and assess patients’ satisfaction.Methods: The study was carried out in a tertiary care hospital of North India from October 2012 to February 2014. Low risk women admitted in early labour were divided into two groups, women delivering in kneeling position and in supine position. The outcome measures studied were, duration of second stage of labour, mode of delivery, 2nd degree perineal tears, Apgar scores at 5 minutes, NICU admission rate and patient satisfaction.Results: The mean duration of second stage of labour in kneeling group was shorter by 14.901 minutes. The rate of vaginal delivery was comparable for both primigravidas and multigravida in kneeling and supine groups, RR: 2.275, 95% CI (0.7872-6.5831) and RR: 1.633, 95% CI (0.393-6.775). Primigravidas had more 2nd degree perineal tears in kneeling group as compared to supine, RR 4.191, 95% CI (1.54 to 11.41). No difference in Apgar scores >7 at 5 minutes was observed in both groups, however, significantly lesser babies in kneeling group were admitted in NICU, RR 0.246, 95% CI (0.079 to 0.761). There was no difference on comparing satisfaction scores of primigravidas and multigravida in both supine and kneeling position.Conclusions: Kneeling position reduces the duration of second stage of labour and NICU admissions.

A Prospective Study

Background: Caesarean section is the most commonly performed abdominal operation in women all over the world. Caesarean sections during the second stage labour accounts for approximately one fourth of all primary caesareans.  Caesarean section at full cervical dilatation is technically difficult and is associated with increased trauma to the lower uterine segment and adjacent structures, as well as increased haemorrhage and infection. Aims and objectives were to determine the indications, maternal and foetal morbidity associated with caesarean section in the second stage of labour.Methods: This prospective study included consecutive 50 cases of caesarean section deliveries conducted in second stage of labor for singleton live pregnancies at term. The data collected in the study was analyzed in terms of maternal demographics, indications of caesarean section, intra-operative and postoperative complications and neonatal outcomes.Results: In our series of 50 deliveries, arrest of descent of fetal head due to malposition was the most common indication of caesarean section accounting for 74% and average procedure time was 45-70 minutes. PPH (62%) was the most common complication. Bladder injury was found in 14% cases. Neonatal outcome variables like APGAR<3 at 5 minutes, respiratory distress and neonatal death were observed in 7, 26 and 2 deliveries respectively.Conclusions: Women undergoing cesarean section in second stage of labour are associated with increased maternal and fetal morbidity. They require special care and hence operation should ideally be performed and supervised by an experienced obstetrician. A proper judgement is required to take a decision for caesarean section at full cervical dilatation.
