At the puskesmas, said Iwan, the patient was referred to the hospital because he was experiencing contractions. Taking into account the patient’s condition, the medical team then carried out the delivery.

“Half an hour later, at the eighth opening, it turned out to be complete. At this complete opening, we then determined that this patient had to be born. Then delivery was carried out using an episiotomy, which made the birth canal easier to expel the baby more quickly,” said Iwan.

“The baby was born at 20.54 WIB, the baby was born and died during delivery because the umbilical cord was entangled,” he explained.
