Abstract

Uterine rupture is a rare but severe complication in obstetrics. A previous C-section is the most important risk factor. Its incidence during labor in women with a previous C-section is of approximately 0.3–0.47%, being potentially severe.

We present the case of a pregnant women with a previous C-section who suffered uterine rupture during labor. The rapid assessment and action of the midwife and obstetric team was essential to obtain a successful obstetric outcome, avoiding maternal and foetal mortality; and nursing care given to the mother and the newborn after birth contributed to achieving a normal postpartum.

It is necessary to have specific knowledge about this condition that, despite rare, can present insidiously with a potential risk for the mother and the foetus.

Resumen

La rotura uterina es una complicación rara pero grave en obstetricia. La cesárea previa es el factor de riesgo más importante. Su incidencia durante el trabajo de parto en mujeres con una cesárea anterior es aproximadamente de 0,3-0,47%, siendo potencialmente grave.

Se presenta un caso de una gestante, con antecedentes de cesárea anterior, que sufre una rotura uterina en trabajo de parto. La rápida valoración y actuación de la matrona y del equipo obstétrico fue imprescindible para obtener un resultado obstétrico satisfactorio, evitando la mortalidad materna y fetal, y los cuidados de enfermería realizados en el posparto a la madre y al recién nacido contribuyeron a conseguir un puerperio normal.

Es necesario poseer conocimientos específicos sobre esta afección, que aun siendo rara, puede producirse de manera insidiosa con potencial riesgo para madre y feto.
