 The frequency of fetuses in occiput posterior position during labor is approximately 20 , in which 5 remain occiput posterior at the end of labor. Occiput posterior position is associated with higher risks of caesarean deliveries and operative vaginal deliveries. The manual rotation to promote rotation from a posterior to an anterior position has been proposed to reduce the extraction rate. There is no randomised trial comparing the effect of manual rotation and expectant management. We propose a protocol for a prospective, monocentric, randomised controlled clinical trial in order to show that the rate of spontaneous vaginal delivery is higher with manual rotation of occiput posterior position than with an expectative management.
