Shoulder dystocia occurred in 1.5% of eligible births in The Netherlands in 1987. This incidence aligns with hospital data, confirming the reliability of the National Obstetric Registration for tracking this birth complication.

Area of Science:

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Perinatal Epidemiology

Context:

  • Retrospective analysis of national and hospital-based obstetric data from The Netherlands.
  • Focus on vaginal deliveries of infants with cephalic presentation and birth weight ≥ 2,500g in 1987.
  • Utilized data from the Landelijke Verloskundige Registratie (LVR) and St. Joseph Hospital, Eindhoven.

Purpose:

  • To determine the incidence of shoulder dystocia in The Netherlands in 1987.
  • To assess the accuracy of the LVR coding for shoulder dystocia.
  • To highlight the importance of standardized management protocols for shoulder dystocia.

Summary:

  • The nationwide incidence of shoulder dystocia was 1.5% (844/54,820 births).
  • Hospital data from 1983-1987 showed a similar incidence of 1.5% (56/3,642 births).

  • The LVR code 'problems with the shoulders' demonstrated 94% concordance with documented shoulder dystocia cases.

    • Impact:

    • Provides crucial epidemiological data on shoulder dystocia incidence in a specific population and timeframe.
    • Validates the utility of national obstetric registries for monitoring birth complications.
    • Emphasizes the need for healthcare providers to be proficient in shoulder dystocia management techniques.
