INTRODUCTION

Pregnancy is the state of carrying a developing fetus within the female

body. Pregnancy lasts for about 9 months measured from the womans last
menstrual period and is divided into three trimesters. When gestation has
completed, it goes through a process called delivery, where the developed
fetus is expelled from the mothers womb.
During pregnancy, the fetus may be in cephalic presentation or the
normal position of a baby in which the fetus head are the nearest the birth
canal. There is also an abnormal presentation in which the fetus buttocks or
feet are nearest the birth canal, it is called Breech Presentation.
Normal labor is defined as the gradual subjugation and dilatation of the
uterine cervix as a result of rhythmic rhythmic Uterine Contractions leading
to the expulsion of the products of conception: the delivery of the fetus,
membranes, umbilical cord and placenta.
In the case of our patient, she was not able to complete the said three
trimesters because of certain circumstances that forces the patient to deliver
the products of conception on the 7 th month. It is an emergency case so
there is a need to induce labor and the use of Oxytocin is necessary to help
contract the uterine wall.
We chose this case because we are focusing on the Delivery Room
Cases for our group case and it was our first time to encounter a preterm
delivery of a fetus in a breech position.
