Prolonged Active Phase
Slide 69
Partograph showing prolonged active phase of labor
Prolonged Active Phase: Cephalopelvic Disproportion
Prolonged Active Phase: Obstruction (1)
Obstructed labour. The uterus is moulded around the fetus; the thickened upper segment is obvious on abdominal palpation
Prolonged Active Phase: Obstruction (2)
Prolonged Active Phase: Inadequate Uterine Activity
