** Introduction **

Definition

“ Cord Prolapse” is when the umbilical cord exits the birth canal prior to the baby.

Incidence • 1 in 200 pregnancies • More often with transverse lie than oblique / cephalic • Ranges from 0.14 – 0.62 %

Etiology • Fetomaternal factors • Obstetric interventions

Etiology >> • Fetomaternal factors are: Fetal malpresentation Prematurity Multiple gestation Multiparity Rupture of membranes Polyhydraminos

Etiology >> • Obstetric interventions : Artificial rupture Internal scalp electrode application intra uterine pressure Catheter placement Forceps application Manual rotation Amnio infusion

Risk Factors • Breech presentation

Risk Factors >> PROM (Premature rupture of the amniotic sac)

Risk Factors >> • Large fetus

Risk factors • Multiple gestations • Long cord • Preterm labor

Types • Overt cord prolapse • Occult cord prolapse • Funic presentation

Overt cord prolapse If the presenting part of the fetus does not fix the pelvis snugly after membrane rupture, there is a risk that the umbilical cord can slip past & present at the cervix or descend into the vagina

Occult cord prolapse • Occur when the cord descends alongside, but not past, the presenting part. It can occur with intact or ruptured membranes.

Funic presentation • Where the cord can be felt to prolapse below presenting part before the membranes have ruptured.

Diagnosis • • • • •

History collection Physical Examination Visual sight Ultra sound Color Doppler

Clinical features • • • •

An ill fitting or non-engaged presenting part. Variable fetal heart rate decelerations. Bradycardia Fetal status activity diminishes and eventually stops.

Management – Immediate vaginal examination to replace the cord into vagina. – To relieve cord compression > a.) Replace the cord gently into the vagina

b.) Elevate the presenting part to prevent cord compression

Treatment

Prevention • Continuous fetal monitoring

Prevention >> • No artificial rupturing

Prevention >> • Earlier diagnosis

Diagnosis 1

• Acute pain related to disease condition

Diagnosis 2 High risk of injury to fetus related to cord compression and uteroplacental insufficiency

Diagnosis 3

“Knowledge deficit related to life threatening condition of fetus”

Diagnosis 4

“Fear and anxiety related to potential loss of fetus.”

Diagnosis 5 “Altered family process related to hospitalization”
