The document discusses managing the third stage of labor. It defines the third stage as the placental stage, which usually lasts 30 minutes. It describes the signs of placental separation and compares expectant versus active management. Expectant management involves gently guiding the placenta after signs of separation, while active management involves oxytocic injection after delivery of the baby and controlled cord traction. The key learning points are to wait for signs of separation, avoid cord pulling, and only inject oxytocics after placental delivery per the Philippine Midwifery Act.
Abnormalities of placenta and cord obgjagan _jaggi
Has a velamentous insertion of the cord (the umbilical cord inserts abnormally into the fetal membranes, instead of the center of the placenta) Has placenta previa (a low-lying placenta that covers part or all of the cervix) or certain other placental abnormalities.
Fourth stage of labor: The hour or two after delivery when the tone of the uterus is reestablished as the uterus contracts again, expelling any remaining contents. These contractions are hastened by breastfeeding, which stimulates production of the hormone oxytocin.

The placenta is said to be retained when it is not expelled from the uterus even 30 minutes after the delivery of the baby
Manual placenta removal is a procedure to remove a retained placenta from the uterus after childbirth.
Mannual removal of placenta is done under GA.
Patient placed in lithotomy position
Bladder is catheterized
nurses/doctor will insert two lubricated, gloved fingers into your vagina with one hand, while the other hand presses gently on the outside of your lower abdomen. During this part of the exam, your doctor will check the size and shape of your uterus and ovaries, noting any tender areas or unusual growths.

Retained placenta can be defined as lack of placental expulsion within 30 minutes of delivery of an infant. it is more common in preterm. Retained Placenta can lead to massive PPH and increase maternal morbidity and mortality.

Stage of Labor

2. Objectives
Define the 3rd stage of labor
Enumerate the signs of placental
separation
Describe the management of the 3rd
stage of labor
3. Third stage of labor
Placental stage
Usually last for 30
minutes
4. Managing the 3rd Stage of Labor
The following are signs of placental
separation except:
A. A gush of blood comes from the
vagina
B. Umbilical cord gets longer
C. Uterine fundus palpable beyond
the umbilicus
D. Uterus becomes round in shape
5. Signs of placental separation
A gush of blood
comes from the
vagina
Umbilical cord gets
longer
Uterus rises over
the abdomen
Uterus becomes
round in shape
7. Expectant management
Talk to the woman
and tell her that
you will deliver her
placenta
Wash your hands
and put on your
sterile gloves
8. Expectant management
After having the signs of
placental separation, hold
the clamp close to the
perineum with one hand.
Deliver the placenta by
putting one hand just
above the pubic bone.
Tell the mother that she
can strain when there is
uterine contraction
9. Expectant management
Gently guide the placenta
downward and outward by
holding on the cord.
Be gentle because a hard
pull can tear or break the
cord and even worst, turn
the uterus inside out
As the uterus stays in
place and the cord gets
longer , continue to guide
gently until the placenta is
delivered
10. Expectant management
When the bulk of
the placenta is
out,hold it with
your two hands
Rotate the placenta
like twisting a rope
until delivered so
that the fetal
membranes will
come out also
11. Expectant management
Feel the uterus
from the abdomen
and massage it to
keep it contracted
Inject an oxytocic
drug
intramuscularly
12. Management of the 3rd stage of
labor
The best time to inject oxytocics
during the 3rd stage of labor
according to RA 7392 is
A. After the delivery of the baby
B. After the delivery of the placenta
13. Philippine Midwifery Act of 1992
(Republic Act 7392)
…..allows midwives to give oxytocics AFTER
delivery of the placenta and if they have
undergone training for it.
14. Active management of third stage
of labor
Injection of
oxytocics after the
delivery of the
baby
Controlled cord
traction
Massage of uterus
15. Active management of third stage
of labor
Requires proper learning and training
Controlled cord traction may
accidentally break the cord or invert
the uterus when the placenta is
adherent
Midwifery Act of 1992 (RA7392) only
allows midwives to inject oxytocics
AFTER delivery of the placenta
16. Key Learning points
Wait for the signs of placental separation
prior to its delivery
Do not pull the umbilical cord if it is still
attached to the uterus to prevent cord
breakage or uterine inversion
Inject oxytocics only AFTER the delivery of
the placenta
Always inspect the placenta for
completeness of membranes and
cotyledons.
