Breech: Obstetrics Hindi Lecture Series ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Breech presentation occurs when the fetus's buttocks or feet are positioned to deliver first instead of the head, complicating the normal delivery process 🤰. It is observed in about 3-4% of full-term pregnancies and is classified into three types: frank breech (buttocks present first, legs extended), complete breech (buttocks present first, legs flexed), and footling breech (one or both feet present first) 🩺. Causes of breech presentation include prematurity, uterine anomalies, polyhydramnios, oligohydramnios, and placenta previa. Diagnosis is confirmed through abdominal palpation, vaginal examination, and ultrasound 🩻. Breech presentations increase the risk of complications such as cord prolapse, birth asphyxia, and trauma during delivery. Management options include external cephalic version (ECV) at 36-37 weeks to turn the baby head-down, planned vaginal breech delivery under strict criteria, or cesarean section for safe delivery. Timely identification and appropriate management are critical to minimize risks for both mother and baby. 🌟✨🍼 #BreechPresentation #ObstetricsLectures #MaternalHealth #FetalPosition #SafeDelivery #PregnancyCare #MedicalEducation #MBBSNotes #StudySmart #VaginalDelivery #CesareanDelivery #HighRiskPregnancy #PrenatalCare
