Filter by:A randomized control trial to investigate whether an informative video before planned external cephalic version reduces maternal anxiety and improves chances of success.
When a patient presents with a fetus in PS after 36+0SA, after acceptance of participation in the study, pelvimetry with evaluation of the height of the fetal presentation by EOS® system in the upright and sitting position will be performed. CT pelvimetry will not be performed. The patient may then be offered an attempt at VME, with clear, fair and appropriate information, after being informed of the data from the right standing EOS® pelvimetry (report and images). VME will be performed according to the recommendations and practice of the department. In the event of failure with a fetus that remains in PS, the choice of delivery route will be decided in consultation with the patient after clear, fair and appropriate information. If the patient wishes to have a vaginal delivery, the pregnancy will be continued without intervention until spontaneous labour or induction in case of indication (premature rupture of membranes (PMR), over term, or intercurrent maternal or fetal pathology). The modalities of the delivery route and/or a possible induction will be discussed between the obstetric team and the patient. If the patient wishes a caesarean delivery in case of persistent PS, the delivery will be scheduled after 39+0SA or earlier if indicated (RPM, intercurrent maternal or fetal pathology). In the case of a successful VME with a fetus that remains in cephalic presentation until labour, management will follow current recommendations. The characteristics of the dimensions and angles of the obstetric pelvis and the height of the fetal presentation in the standing and sitting positions, the performance and success of MEC, the choice of delivery route, and the final delivery route will be recorded.
Acupuncture-type interventions (such as moxibustion and acupuncture) at Bladder 67 (BL67, Zhiyin point) have been proposed to have positive effects on breech presentation. However, the role of laser acupuncture for Breech presentation remains unknown. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of laser acupuncture in correcting breech presentation.
Women at term (over 37 weeks) that are candidates for external cephalic version will be positioned in the trendelenburg position 5 minutes prior to external cephalic version performance and during the procedure. The control group will not be positioned differently than usual. We will evaluate external cephalic version success and compare the 2 groups.
A prospective study assessing the use of external cephalic version for the management of Twin A breech presentation in twin pregnancy.
A prospective study assessing the use of external cephalic version for the management of breech presentation in pregnancy.
At the time of birth, nearly 5% of children are in breech presentation. This type of presentation requires a medical environment and leads to more frequent use of Caesarean sections. This is why the external version can be proposed, usually from the 36th week. Its success rate is 40%, and is usually performed under simple sedation. One of the causes of failure is the lack of relaxation of the uterus, which could be higher in case of deeper anesthesia, as is the case in spinal anesthesia. The study project is to demonstrate superiority of spinal anesthesia compared to the usual protocol sedation in terms of primary and secondary objectives.
Does clinical hypnosis or neuro-linguistic programming improve the success rate of external cephalic version?
