Rubin's I and II maneuvers, rotational maneuver to deliver the baby in case of shoulder dystocia. [1]The Rubin's I maneuver is dislodging the anterior shoulder under pubic symphysis by adding suprapubic pressure while in the McRoberts' position.
The combined neck flexion, traction on the fetus toward the hip/pelvis, and the suprapubic pressure on the mother/uterus allows for delivery of the head of a breech infant, granted prior breech delivery steps are followed and the infant's occipitus is rotated/facing anteriorly relative to the mother.
