Conclusion
We found the nuchal cord to be more common in young age, primigravida, graduates, low socioeconomic status, and male fetuses. It may be associated with maternal stress. The excessive liquor is one of the causative factors in cord entanglement, whereas the nuchal cord, once established, is responsible for reduced levels of the amniotic fluid. It causes fetal distress. While the nuchal cord is probably the only cord condition that can be diagnosed antenatally but with low sensitivity. The other cord conditions like short cord, compressed cord, body cord, false and true knots, which may produce similar perinatal morbidity and mortality, remain undiagnosed antenatally. A better evaluation tool is necessary to diagnose problematic cord conditions to reduce perinatal morbidity and mortality.
