Sometimes, labor stalls or occurs much too slowly. Prolonged labor may also be referred to as "failure to progress." Prolonged labor can be determined by labor stage and whether the cervix has thinned and opened appropriately during labor. If your baby is not born after approximately 20 hours of regular contractions, you are likely to be in prolonged labor. Some health experts may say it occurs after 18 to 24 hours. When the combined duration of the first and second stage of labour is more than the arbitrary time limit of 18 hours, it is termed prolonged labor. The prolongation encompasses delayed dilatation of the cervix (in the first stage) and/or inadequate descent of the presenting part (during the first or second stage). Inefficient uterine contraction is one of the causes of prolonged labor, others being either due to pelvis or the foetus. It must be borne in mind that prolonged labor is not synonymous with inefficient uterine contraction. The mortality for this condition is 60 to 9o%.Risk factors, Multiparous (75%), History of allergy (41%) Intrapartum period (70%),
The benefits of studyng this is to improved my knowledge about prolonged labor and be aware of it ., so that next time that I can encounter again a case like I have an idea and also I can help pregnant woman or woman who is in labor that experience like this.

Eming Admission Date:
Fault in power include Inability to bear down, abnormal uterine contraction or incoordinate uterine contraction. Fault in the passage includes - contracted pelvis, pelvic tumor, eg:fibroid or even full baldder. Fault in the passenger includes - malposition and malpresentation, congenital anomalies of the foetus (hydrocephalus - common) Too often deflexed head, minor degrees of pelvic contraction and disordered uterine action have got sinister effects in causing nondilatation of the cervix. Others - Injudicious early administration of sedatives and analgesics before the actual active labor begins.
Malpresentations:
The normal position of the fetus is longitudinal with thefetal spine parallel to the mother's spine. The fetus lies in a completely flexedposition with the chin touching the chest and the arms and legs flexed infront. The fetus normally faces the mother's back for a smooth delivery.Any change in this position can cause prolongation in the duration in labor. Abreech presentation in which the fetus is in the buttocks down position, a facepresentation in which the fetus faces the mother's abdomen, or a deflexedposition of the head in which the neck of the fetus is less flexed or evenstraight or extended can all cause prolonged labor.
also capable of overlapping each other normally tosome extent, decreasing the size of the head('moulding'.So, it is difficult toestimate by physical examination alone if CPD is actually present.But if laboris unduly prolonged and no other cause is detected, a diagnosis of CPD is usually made.True CPD occurs only when the baby is very big, as in a diabetic motheror aphysically very small
Dystocia
characterized by slow, abnormal labor progression resulting from abnormalities of uterine contractions or maternal expulsive forces. Dystocia is the leading indication for augmentationand is the leading indication for primary cesarean delivery
Chief Complain:
Labor Pain
Rationale:
Due to labor contraction
Past history:
Patient had her first baby on and second baby was abort on 2011, and also had her prenatal checked up every month.
Present History:
Pain in due to labor pain for trial of labor, IE 3-4 cmContractions will last about 30-45 seconds, giving you 5-30 minutes of rest between contractions
Amniotic fluid:
amnion
the serous fluid in which the embryo and fetus is suspended within the
Amniotic sac: The amniotic sac and its filling provide a liquid that surrounds and cushions
the fetus. It allows the fetus to move freely within the walls of the uterus. Buoyancy is also provided.
Fetus:
the unborn young from the end of the eighth week after conception to the moment of birth, as distinguished from the earlier embryo.
Umbilical cord: a cordlike structure connecting the fetus with the placenta during
pregnancy, conveying nourishment from the mother and removing wastes.
Placenta:
the vascular organ formed in the uterus during pregnancy, consisting of both maternal and embryonic tissues and providing oxygen and nutrients for the fetus and transfer of waste products from the fetal to the maternal blood circulation.
Uterus: anatomy a hollow muscular organ lying within the pelvic cavity of female mammals. It houses
the developing fetus and by contractions aids in its expulsion at parturition. Nontechnical name: womb
Cervix:
any necklike part of an organ, esp the lower part of the uterus that extends into the vagina
