ABSTRACT

Perinatal events of 180 babies with nuchal cord (umbilical cord entanglement around foetal neck) over one year have been studied. The incidence of nuchal cord was 5.74% of all hospital deliveries. More than one third (39%) of them had tight nuchal cord (TNC) and 61% had loose nuchal cord (LNC). Babies with TNC were more frequently met with foetal distress (51%), prolonged second stage (11%), non-toxaemic accidental haemorrhage (7%) and operative delivery (56%) when compared to babies with LNC and controls (without nuchal cord). Nearly one fourth (24%) of the babies with TNC were born as small for date, had birth asphyxia (61%) and 8.5% died during perinatal period. Perinatal outcome was adversely affected by TNC in comparison to LNC and controls.
