Amnioinfusion can help with cord compression and meconium, but carries risks. A case study highlights potential fetal malpresentation, even fetal demise, following this procedure.

Area of Science:

Obstetrics and Gynecology
Fetal Medicine

Background:

Amnioinfusion is a common intrapartum procedure.
It is used to relieve umbilical cord compression and dilute thick meconium.

Observation:

A case of malpresentation occurred following amnioinfusion.
The fetal presentation changed from vertex to an unrecognized shoulder presentation.

Findings:

Intrapartum fetal demise occurred after the malpresentation.
The study highlights potential risks associated with amnioinfusion, including changes in fetal presentation.

Implications:

Further research is needed on amniotic fluid volume, intrauterine manipulation, and their effects on fetal presentation.
Clinicians must carefully monitor infused volumes during amnioinfusion to mitigate risks.
