| description | Summary
All cases of obstructed labour seen and managed at the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Enugu, Nigeria, between January 1999 and December 2004 were identified from the Accident and Emergency department records, labour ward and obstetric theatre records. There were 4,521 deliveries during the study period and 120 (2.7%) of these were complicated by obstructed labour. Of the 120 women, 68 (56.7%) were nullipara. A total of 41 women (34.2%) were booked, 70 (58.3%) unbooked, and 9 (7.5%) booked elsewhere. Most women were in occupational social class V. The cause of obstruction was cephalopelvic disproportion in 68 women (56.6%). The most common intervention was a lower segment caesarean section. Perinatal mortality was 30%. There were four maternal deaths (3.3%). Obstructed labour remains a major public health problem in Nigeria contributing significantly to perinatal mortality and maternal morbidity and mortality. |
