A delayed second stage is when the active second stage lasts ≥2 hours in nulliparous and ≥1 hour in multiparous women. Intermittent auscultation for fetal heart should happen at least every 5 minutes for at least a minute after a contraction. Routine use of oxytocin is not recommended in the second stage of labour.

The risk of uterine rupture is 50 per 10,000 VBAC and this risk increases two to three times higher if the labour is induced or augmented. VBAC should be conducted in a suitably staffed and equipped delivery suite, with continuous intrapartum monitoring and care with available resources for immediate caesarean section and neonatal resuscitation.

The normal baseline fetal heart rate is 110–160 bpm and the absence of accelerations in an otherwise normal CTG is of uncertain significance. FBS is indicated when the CTG is pathological and normal fetal pH is ≥. Further reading Collins S, Arulkumaran S, et al. Oxford Handbook of Obstetrics & Gynaecology. 3rd ed.
