Mechanism of Labour

Mechanism of Labour: Normal to Abnormal

This app is Intended for Health Professionals only. Labour is an inherent process of mother nature. Apart from the rural and semi-urban settings, even in urban settings, normal vaginal delivery rates continue to be substantial. As doctors and health workers, it is imperative for us to understand the mechanisms of labour and to conduct labour in the right manner to be able to deliver the fetus. Medical and Nursing students, because of several reasons find it difficult to witness and understand labour in the real-life scenarios. In real-life scenarios, there is no going back or questioning in between or pausing the process, because the delivery of the baby is the foremost priority. This app details the labour steps and the mechanisms, in intricate detail in simple language, demonstrating everything, as if live. The advantage is that it can be paused, rewinded, re-viewed and started from the middle, umpteen number of times. It aims to provide a good understanding of the process of labour in normal and abnormal presentations, indirectly hoping to empower the medical students' brains with clear concepts of the labour process. It will also help all the medical and nursing undergraduate students as well as postgraduate students to learn how to demonstrate the mechanism of labour and different manoeuvres to facilitate the delivery in abnormal presentations in the exams.
