The patient, admitted for full-term delivery with a history of Caesarean section, had expressed preference for surgical birth. Despite this, labour was induced with prostaglandin-based medication and later augmented. A ventouse-assisted vaginal delivery was carried out. Soon after, the patient experienced severe postpartum bleeding.
In absence of sufficient emergency support and an active ambulance driver, she was transported to a higher medical center. Despite surgery and multiple transfusions, she passed away. The newborn, delivered with the umbilical cord around the neck, was later found to exhibit signs of neurological compromise.
