WHAT IS EPISIOTOMY AT PREGNANCY DELIVERY?
Episiotomy is the stage of labor, when the baby's head emerges while delivery.
The pregnant woman may given an injection of local anesthetic and the doctor
will make small incision between the vagina and anus (the perineum).
The medians incision is shorter in comparison with the lateral incision, prepares
less pains, heals better and hardly disturbs the arising scar. It catches on
occasionally still further up to the anus sphincter. Most physicians therefore
prefer a lateral incision. It often causes troubles. Often, you are worse than
the whole birth for the woman. Vessel injuries frequently arise at the incision.
In some case, many woman find the incision a coarse injury of the genital area
about years.
Alarmingly many women find the incision a coarse injury of their genital area
about years. If some case, the episiotomy could be carried out very well in
considered way and situations.
The incision becomes necessary :
- If the heart sounds of the child get critical and no more con-press the
birth lasts already too long or the mother is already exhausted so that can.
- If the child is born too early. The pressure of the perineum tissue on the
soft childlike capitulum is reduced so and shortens the kard ejection phase.
- If the birth must be ended with the help of a suction cup. A dilatation
of the birth canal is caused so.
- Heart, eye complaint if the mother may not press for medical reasons.
In the past, the episiotomy was a routine birth helping measure and you carried
out at almost every first giving birth.
The following reasons were given for this:
- An unchecked perineal laceration should be avoided. He could perhaps injure
the sphincter of the anus and lead to rectal incontinence (involuntary departure
of intestine content).
- The smooth edges of a wound of an incision can be sewn more lightly. At
a rip this is often more difficult. It doesn't prepare any so strong pains
mostly, however, since it represents a natural injury and the tissue breaks
in the weakest place. Vessels aren't hurt most.
- An over-stretching of the muscle and connective tissue should avoided be
prevented to a womb and vaginal prolapse or a urinary incontinence. This can
by the way appear even at an emperor cesarean section. A consistent involution
exercises of the pelvic floor is primarily important after the birth.
There are few situations when the episiotomy may be medically necessary. If
there is a sign at the baby is in distress while in the birth canal, something
like slowing of your baby’s heart rate, an episiotomy could be unavoidable
for the sake of your baby’s well being. If the shoulders of the baby’s
get stuck, if the head of baby is very large that cannot fit out through the
vaginal opening or if delivery happens too quickly for the skin of your perineum
to stretch naturally, your doctor may take action for an episiotomy.
At some case, it is recommended to ask about the episiotomy rate in your favored
hospital, also try to have the reasons which lead to an episiotomy in the clinic
which is explained.
