At one time, women who had delivered by cesarean section in the past would usually have another cesarean section for any future pregnancies. The rationale was that if allowed to labor, many of these women with a scar in their uterus would rupture the uterus along the weakness of the old scar. Over time, a number of observations have become apparent: Most women with a previous cesarean section can labor and deliver vaginally without rupturing their uterus. Some women who try this will, in fact, rupture their uterus. When the uterus ruptures, the rupture may have consequences ranging from near trivial to disastrous. It can be very difficult to diagnose a uterine rupture prior to observing fetal effects (eg, bradycardia). Once fetal effects are demonstrated, even a very fast reaction and nearly immediate delivery may not lead to a good outcome. The more cesarean sections the patient has, the greater the risk of subsequent rupture during labor. The greatest risk occurs following a “classical” cesarean section (in which the uterine incision extends up into the fundus.) The least risk of rupture is among women who had a low cervical transverse incision. Low vertical incisions probably increase the risk of rupture some, but usually not as much as a classical incision. Many studies have found the use of oxytocin to be associated with an increased risk of rupture, either because of the oxytocin itself, or perhaps because of the clinical circumstances under which it would be contemplated. Pain medication, including epidural anesthetic, has not resulted greater adverse outcome because of the theoretical risk of decreasing the attendant’s ability to detect rupture early. The greatest risk of rupture occurs during labor, but some of the ruptures occur prior to the onset of labor. This is particularly true of the classical incisions. Overall successful vaginal delivery rates following previous cesarean section are in the neighborhood of 70 This means that about 30of women undergoing a vaginal trial of labor will end up requiring a cesarean section. Those who undergo cesarean section (failed VBAC) after a lengthy labor will frequently have a longer recovery and greater risk of infection than had they undergone a scheduled cesarean section without labor. Women whose first cesarean was for failure to progress in labor are only somewhat less likely to be succesful in their quest for a VBAC than those with presumably non-recurring reasons for cesarean section. For these reasons, women with a prior cesarean section are counseled about their options for delivery with a subsequent pregnancy: Repeat Cesarean Section, or Vaginal Trial of Labor. They are usually advised of the approximate 70successful VBAC rate (modified for individual risk factors). They are counseled about the risk of uterine rupture (approximately 1in most series), and that while the majority of those ruptures do not lead to bad outcome, some of them do, including fetal brain damage and death, and maternal loss of future childbearing. They are advised of the usual surgical risks of infection, bleeding, anesthesia complications and surgical injury to adjacent structures. After counseling, many obstetricians leave the decision for a repeat cesarean or VBAC to the patient. Both approaches have risks and benefits, but they are different risks and different benefits. Fortunately, most repeat cesarean sections and most vaginal trials of labor go well, without any serious complications. For those choosing a trial of labor, close monitoring of mother and baby, with early detection of labor abnormalities and preparation for

How to push a baby out video how to prevent tearing during labor and delivery

During the examination, the doctor gently puts a lubricated, gloved finger of one hand into the rectum. He or she may use the other hand to press on the lower belly or pelvic area. A digital rectal exam is done for men as part of a complete physical examination to check the prostate gland .

An educational demonstration of Foley catheter insertion technique. Procedure education for students and clinicians — not personal medical advice.

How to insert a Foley catheter is demonstrated in this short nursing-skills video, covering male and female urinary catheterization with sterile technique. It shows preparation, insertion, and securing of the catheter. A practical training clip for nursing and medical students. Procedure education only — not personal medical advice.

This video records a real vaginal birth of triplets in a hospital delivery room, filmed as it happens. There is no narration; the audio is the natural sound of the room, with the care team coaching the mother through each baby in turn, including one breech baby. It is shared as a documentary record of a multiple birth.

Filmed in an operating room, this video follows a cesarean birth from the abdominal incision through delivery of the baby. It gives students and expectant parents a clear view of how a C-section is performed and how the surgical team works. For learning purposes only — not medical advice.

This video demonstrates the use of an episiotomy to facilitate vaginal delivery of a baby

Men and women have anatomical differences when it comes to genitals, but orgasms are fundamentally very similar. The female orgasm lasts longer than the male, ranging about 20 seconds compared to 3 to 10 seconds, but men do experience more orgasms.

In this recording, a first-time mother gives birth in a birthing pool, with the delivery documented from the final contractions through the baby's arrival. Water births are supported by a midwife or birth team, as shown here. It offers expectant parents and students a realistic view of the method. For learning purposes only — not medical advice.

This urology video demonstrates Foley catheter insertion in both male and female patients. The recording shows the sterile technique used to place an indwelling urinary catheter, a routine procedure in hospital, surgical, and nursing care. Urinary catheters drain the bladder when a patient cannot pass urine normally.

A vitamin B12 injection is demonstrated in this brief nursing skills video. The recording shows the intramuscular injection technique used to administer the vitamin in a clinical setting. It is a training example for nursing students learning standard intramuscular injection procedures.

Childbirth (also called labour, birth, partus or parturition) is the culmination of a human pregnancy or gestation period with birth of one or more newborn infants from a woman’s uterus. The process of normal human childbirth is categorized in three stages of labour: the shortening and dilation of the cervix, descent and birth of the infant, and birth of the placenta. In some cases, childbirth is achieved through caesarean section, the removal of the neonate through a surgical incision in the abdomen, rather than through vaginal birth

How sperm are formed and the pathway they travel during ejaculation are explained in this educational physiology video, covering the testes, epididymis, and associated structures. It is a study resource for students of reproductive biology. Educational only — not medical advice.
