Can someone tell me the about the classification of perineal tears?
Its for a piece of uni work
Answers:
Perineal tears during vaginal birth are so common as to be more the rule than the exception. This is especially true in primigravidas (first time moms) and it is usually impossible to predict in whom perineal tears will occur. Fortunately the tears usually involve only the mucosal lining (moist skin layer ) of the vagina and is then classified as a grade one tear. If the tear involves the underlying muscle of the vagina, or even the pelvic floor muscle, it is classified as grade two, whereas a tear of the external anal sphincter is a grade three tear. If the tear is even more extensive and has torn right through the vagina into the bowel, including a total disruption of the external anal sphincter, it is a grade four tear.Maori names?
