Urgent manual replacement (of the uterus)
Uterine inversion is a rare complication in the third stage of labor, in which the uterus is (incompletely or completely) turned "inside out". There are three degrees of uterine inversion as follows: 1) First degree (in which the inverted fundus extends to-but not through- the cervix); 2) Second degree (in which the inverted fundus extends through the cervix, but remains within the vagina); and 3) Third degree (in which the inverted fundus extends outside of the vagina).
Management for inversion of the uterus includes:
1. Urgent manual replacement (of the uterus)
2. Correction of dehydration and ketoacidosis
3. Blood transfusion
4. Nothing by mouth
5. I.V. fluid administration
6. Oxygen administration
7. Analgesic administration
