Abstract EN
Background.
Breech deliveries have always been topical issues in obstetrics.
Neonates undergoing term breech deliveries have long-term morbidity up to the school age irrespective of mode of delivery.
Objective.
To determine prevalence and perinatal outcomes of singleton term breech delivery.
Methods.
Hospital based cross-sectional study was conducted on 384 participants retrospectively.
Descriptive and analytical statistics was used.
Result.
A total of 384 breech deliveries were included.
Prevalence of singleton breech deliveries in the hospital was 3.4%.
The perinatal outcome of breech deliveries was 322 (83.9%).
Adverse perinatal outcome of singleton term breech delivery was significantly associated with women’s age of greater than or equal to 35 years (AOR = 2.62, 95% CI = 1.14–6.03), fully dilated cervix (AOR = 0.48, 95% CI = 0.25–0.91), ruptured membrane (AOR = 5.11, 95% CI = 2.25–11.6), and fetal weight of <2500 g (AOR = 6.77, 95% CI = 3.22–14.25).
Conclusion.
Entrapment of head, birth asphyxia, and cord prolapse were the most common causes of perinatal mortality.
Factors like fetal weight <2500 gm, mothers of age 35 years and above, those mothers not having a fully dilated cervix, and mothers with ruptured membrane were associated with increased perinatal mortality.
