Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In January 2021 Dept of ObGyn of Santo Spirito Hospital Pescara Italy, and in July 2022 Dept of ObGyn of San Giovanni di Dio Hospital Florence Italy, started regular training in management of obstetric emergencies. Twin vaginal deliveries were considered when first fetus is vertex presenting. The present study is evaluating retrospectively the rate of vaginal birth in twins after 34 weeks' gestation in the period 2017-2020, and 2021-2024 for Santo Spirito Hospital Pescara, and 2020-2022 June, and July 2022-2024 for San Giovanni di Dio Hospital Pescara. Incidence of maternal and fetal/neonatal outcomes were considered. Policy in Pescara hospital is based on cultural support of teamworks working in labor ward. Florence policy is based on availability of two teamworks previously skilled for twin vaginal delivery

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In the period 2017-2020 before starting of simulator training for obstetrics emergencies, twin birth were collected. Incidence of vaginal birth and incidence of maternal adverse outcome (such as PPH) and fetal/neonatal adverse outcome (such as NICU stay) were recorded. The same outcomes were collected in twin deliveries after 34 wks in the period 2021-2024. Similarly in San Giovanni di Dio Hospital Florence they started this protocol in July 2022. The retrospective data enrollement identified the period January 2020-June 2022 and July 2022-December 2024. Teamworks in Pescara Hospital were supported by continous formation for retaining skills on vaginal birth particularly twin vaginal deliveries. In Florence Hospital two teamworks were supporting patients wondering for a vaginal birth and in the meantime positive results were collected in labor ward
