Recognised Protocols

Shoulder dystocia occurs during the delivery process when the shoulder of the unborn child becomes trapped behind the pubic bone of the mother. Failure to adequately deal with shoulder dystocia by application of recognised protocols can be considered as actionable medical negligence if the child sustains personal injury.
