Introduction to the whole process of surgical delivery for pregnant women
Surgery for pregnant women is a way to complete delivery through surgery. For some high-risk pregnant women, this method can ensure the safety of the mother and fetus. Below we will introduce in detail the entire process of surgical delivery for pregnant women from four aspects.
1. Preparations before surgery
Preparation work before surgery includes assessment of the health of the pregnant woman, arrangement and preparation for surgery, fasting before surgery, etc. Before the operation, the doctor will evaluate the physical condition of the pregnant woman and the condition of the fetus, such as whether there is any disease, bleeding, etc. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the operation, the doctor also needs to arrange the operating room and surgical anesthesiologist.
2. Surgical process
Before the operation, the pregnant woman will be pushed to the operating room, where doctors and nurses will insert a urinary catheter and inject intravenous drugs into the pregnant woman. After the operation begins, the doctor will make an incision on the pregnant woman\’s belly and then remove the fetus from the uterus. The doctor will evaluate the fetus and remove the amniotic fluid and placenta.
3. Recovery process after surgery
After surgery, pregnant women need to recover for a period of time before being discharged from the hospital. During the recovery period, doctors will pay close attention to the physical condition of the pregnant woman, such as blood pressure, lochia, etc. Pregnant women need bed rest and follow their doctor\’s recommendations for appropriate exercise.
4. Postoperative precautions
After surgery, pregnant women need to pay attention to their diet, wound care, and medication. Pregnant women should avoid strenuous exercise during the recovery period, especially in the first few weeks, to avoid wound dehiscence. Pregnant women also need to pay close attention to their physical condition and seek medical attention promptly if they experience abnormal lochia, fever, infection, etc.
To sum up, surgical delivery of pregnant women is a way to ensure the safety of high-risk pregnant women and fetuses. Pregnant women can promote postoperative recovery and successfully welcome the arrival of their newborn by strictly following the doctor\’s recommendations and postoperative precautions.
