Question 3 of 5

3. Question
On vaginal examination of an extended (frank) breech presentation as it descends in the pelvis, the anal cleft (between the buttocks):
- Can easily be felt during early labour running across the middle of the os
- Runs anterior-posterior if the fetus is correctly positioned in a sacrum-anterior position
- Runs side-to-side (transverse) because the sacrum is transverse; and is closer to the maternal sacrum because the anterior buttock leads
- Is closer to the maternal pubic bone because the posterior buttock leads
Correct

Incorrect
Question 4 of 5

4. Question
If you feel a foot on vaginal examination, you should:
- Pull the emergency buzzer because this is a footling breech and needs to go to theatre immediately
- Locate the buttocks to determine whether the breech is flexed (complete breech) or standing (footling)
- Pull it down to create room in the pelvis
- Explain to the woman that her baby is presenting in a footling breech position, which is more dangerous for her and the baby, so you recommend a caesarean section
Correct

Incorrect
Question 5 of 5

5. Question
A kneeling breech presentation:
- is dangerous and should only be delivered by caesarean section.
- will usually descend in a sacrum posterior position and then rotate on the pelvic floor to emerge sacrum transverse as normal.
- is the second most common type of breech position.
- will be born in a sacrum posterior position, and there is a high chance the after coming head could get stuck because of this.
