Description
The Shoulder Presentation Chart is an educational obstetric poster that illustrates a fetal position where the baby’s shoulder presents first in the birth canal instead of the head or buttocks. This condition usually occurs when the fetus lies sideways in the uterus, known as a transverse lie. The chart helps nursing students, midwives, and healthcare professionals understand this abnormal fetal presentation, its causes, and its clinical importance during pregnancy and labour.
