Abruptio Placentae↗
Extradural analgesia--the preferred method of analgesia for vaginal breech delivery.
A prospective trial was designed to study the effect of extradural analgesia on the management of breech delivery. From a study of 51 patients, it was concluded that the duration of labour was not lengthened, the frequency of breech extraction was decreased and the condition of the infant was improved, as shown by foetal blood sampling and Apgar scores. Therefore we recommend strongly that extradural analgesia should be used in the management of all breech deliveries.
