What this Trial Is About
This research aims to evaluate the use of external cephalic version ECV for managing Twin A breech presentation in twin pregnancies. The study seeks to determine the success rate of this procedure at an obstetric clinic and to identify new sonographic criteria that may predict successful ECV attempts, which have not been explored before. Participants will undergo the external cephalic version procedure targeting Twin A in the pregnancy. The study will monitor and assess various factors such as fetal weight, Doppler indices, and maternal and fetal outcomes shortly before and after the procedure. Follow-up will continue with evaluations including delivery mode six weeks after birth. During the study, participants will be assessed through ultrasound measurements, cardiotocogram monitoring, and pain scoring at specific intervals before and after the ECV procedure. Researchers will track outcomes such as emergency delivery, bleeding, contractions, and rupture of membranes. The primary outcome is the success rate of the ECV measured four hours after the procedure, with additional follow-up up to six weeks postpartum.
