Objective: It is to compare neonatal morbidity in terms of birth trauma, respiratory distress syndrome, APGAR score in Primigravida with breech presentation delivered vaginally and emergency cesarean section. Design: Cross-sectional comparative study. Place and Duration of Study: Obstetrics and Gynaecology Unit-I, Bahawal Victoria Hospital, Bahawalpur from 1-5-2007 to 30-4-2008. Patients and Method: The study was carried out on all Primigravida with breech presentation reported through emergency in labour deliveredvaginally and by emergency cesarean section. The variable analyzed were birth trauma, respiratory distress syndrome and APGAR score at 1 and 5 minutes. Students-t test was used for comparison between means and chi square test for comparison between percentages. Significance was taken at P<0.05. Results: It was found that mean APGAR score at 1 and 5 minutes is 7.31 and 9.066 in vaginal and 8.533 and 9.644 incesarean group. Respiratory distress syndrome is more in cesarean (4.4%) than vaginal group (2.2%). Observed neonatal trauma is more in vaginal group (6.7%) than cesarean section (2.2%). Conclusion: Neonatal morbidity appears to be more in vaginal breech delivery than cesarean section for Primigravida with breech presentation at term.

Objectives: To compare the frequency of wound infection between subcuticular stitches versus interrupted mattress sutures after cesarean section. Setting: Obstetrics & Gynecology Department, Bahawal Victoria Hospital, Bahawalpur. Study duration: 21st July 2019 to 20th December 2020 Study design: Randomized controlled Clinical trial Materials & Methods: In this clinical trial study, A sum-total of 60 women, 18-40 yrs of age, scheduled for planned elective cesarean section through Pfannenstiel incision were enrolled. In Group I women, subcuticular sutures were placed while in group II women, interrupted mattress sutures were placed. All women were discharged on tablet Augmentin 1gram x twice a day for 7 days at which wound infection was noted. Results: The mean age of women in group I was 27.60 ± 5.16 years and was 27.40 ± 3.99 years in group II. My study has shown the wound infection in group I (sub-cuticular stitches) as 01 (3.33%) and in group II (interrupted mattress sutures) as 08 (26.67%) respectively with p-value of 0.011. Conclusion: The inference from my study shows that the wound infection after cesarean section is less after sub cuticular stitches as compared to interrupted mattress sutures. Keywords: cesarean section, sub cuticular stitches, wound infectio

Full textAbstract:
Child birth via Cesarean section accounts for approximately 32% of all births each year in the United States. A variety of risk factors and complications can lead caregivers and patients to plan for a Cesarean delivery in advance before onset of labor. However, a non-trivial subset of Cesarean sections (∼25%) are unplanned and occur after an initial trial of labor is attempted. Unfortunately, patients who deliver via unplanned Cesarean sections have increased maternal morbidity and mortality rates and higher rates of neonatal intensive care admissions. In an effort to develop models aimed at improving health outcomes in labor and delivery, this work seeks to explore the use of national vital statistics data to quantify the likelihood of an unplanned Cesarean section based on 22 maternal characteristics. Machine learning techniques are used to ascertain influential features, train and evaluate models, and assess accuracy against available test data. Based on cross-validation results from a large training cohort (n = 6,530,467 births), the gradient-boosted tree algorithm was identified as the best performer and was evaluated on a large test cohort (n = 10,613,877 births) for two prediction scenarios. Area under the receiver operating characteristic curves of 0.77 or higher and recall scores of 0.78 or higher were obtained and the resulting models are well calibrated. Combined with feature importance analysis to explain why certain maternal characteristics lead to a specific prediction in individual patients, the developed analysis pipeline provides additional quantitative information to aid in the decision process on whether to plan for a Cesarean section in advance, a substantially safer option among women at a high risk of unplanned Cesarean delivery during labor.

Full textAbstract:
Background There is little research on how financial incentives and penalties impact national cesarean section rates. In January 2018, Georgia introduced a national cesarean section reduction policy, which imposes a financial penalty on hospitals that do not meet their reduction targets. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of this policy on cesarean section rates, subgroups of women, and selected perinatal outcomes. Methods We included women who gave birth from 2017 to 2019 registered in the Georgian Birth Registry (n = 150 534, nearly 100% of all births in the country during this time). We then divided the time period into pre-policy (January 1, 2017, to December 31, 2017) and post-policy (January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2019). An interrupted time series analysis was used to compare the cesarean section rates (both overall and stratified by parity), neonatal intensive care unit transfer rates, and perinatal mortality rates in the two time periods. Descriptive statistics were used to assess differences in maternal socio-demographic characteristics. Results The mean cesarean section rate in Georgia decreased from 44.7% in the pre-policy period to 40.8% in the post-policy period, mainly among primiparous women. The largest decrease in cesarean section births was found among women <25 years of age and those with higher education. There were no significant differences in the neonatal intensive care unit transfer rate or the perinatal mortality rate between vaginal and cesarean section births in the post-policy period. Conclusion The cesarean section rate in Georgia decreased during the 2-year post-policy period. The reduction mainly took place among primiparous women. The policy had no impact on the neonatal intensive care unit transfer rate or the perinatal mortality rate. The impact of the national cesarean section reduction policy on other outcomes is not known.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Childbirth is a physiological event for the expulsion of the fetus. It has a low maternal morbidity or mortality, does not present problems in subsequent pregnancies and it has a lower risk of fetal death and neonatal morbidity. Despite this, there are circumstances where cesarean section is the best option. Objective: To determine the prevalence of delivery and cesarean section, and identify whether maternal age is an influencing factor when choosing the route of birth. Methods: Retrospective, observational and cross-sectional study, carried out in Mexican women in private institutions during the period from 2015 to 2019. Inclusion criteria: women who attended the private hospital and had a medical history including maternal age, gestational age, number of deliveries and cesarean sections (emergency and elective) were included. Exclusion criteria were twin pregnancies and preterm births. Three age study groups were formed for deliveries and caesarean section A) 18 to 29years of age, B) 30 to 39 years of age and C) 40 to 45years of age and differences between deliveries and caesarean sections were compared. The SPSS Statistics package, version 25, was used; Descriptive statistics were performed including mean (±) standard deviation or percentage and comparison of groups by Chi-squared test. Results: The decrease in childbirth is directly proportional to the increase in maternal age, with a higher prevalence of childbirth in women between 18 and 29years of age (Group A=60.79%) and a higher prevalence of cesarean delivery in women between 40 and 45years of age, age (Group C=48.19%). A statistically significant difference was found only in Groups A vs B, when comparing the prevalence of deliveries (60.79 vs 51.81%, p=0.05) and cesarean sections (29.21 vs 48.19%, p=0.05). Conclusions: physiological delivery is preferred in our private institution; although, complications during pregnancy and childbirth associated with maternal ageing influence the higher rate of cesarean section.

Full textAbstract:
Objectives To evaluate the incidence, etiologies, and clinical outcomes of secondary postpartum hemorrhage in a hospital with a high cesarean section rate and to compare the etiologies of secondary postpartum hemorrhage following cesarean delivery versus vaginal delivery. Materials and methods This retrospective study included 123 women with secondary postpartum hemorrhage who were treated at a tertiary-level hospital between January 2004 and June 2018. Descriptive statistics and the chi-square test were used for data analysis. Results The incidence of secondary postpartum hemorrhage was 0.21%. The median onset of bleeding was 12 days after delivery. Fifty-two percent of the deliveries were by cesarean section. The most common etiology of secondary postpartum hemorrhage was endometritis (67.5%), followed by retained placental tissue (21.1%). Women who delivered by cesarean section had a higher rate of endometritis (80.0% vs 53.4%) and a lower rate of retained placental tissue (10.8% vs. 32.8%) than those who delivered vaginally. Surgical intervention included uterine evacuation in 29.3% and hysterectomy in 8.1% of the patients. Five percent of women were treated by embolization. Conclusions Endometritis was the most common cause of secondary postpartum hemorrhage. Women who delivered by cesarean section were less likely to have retained placental tissue but were at higher risk for endometritis and uterine pseudoaneurysm than those who delivered vaginally.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Helping first-time mothers who have just undergone cesarean section and transitioning from hospital to home with their infant is a complex process. Therefore, understanding what contributes to discharge readiness is necessary. Objective: This study aimed to determine discharge readiness level and its associated factors among first-time mothers who have undergone cesarean section. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 233 first-time mothers who had undergone cesarean sections selected using quota sampling from the two largest referral centers in China. Data were collected from March to June 2021 using a demographic characteristics form, Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale-New Mother Form (RHDS-NMF), and Quality Discharge Teaching Scale-New Mother Form (QDTS-NMF). Descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis. Results: The discharge readiness of the respondents was at a moderate level. Age (r = -0.129, p = 0.049) and complications after cesarean section (r = -0.136, p = 0.038) had a negative correlation with discharge readiness. In contrast, the subscales of QDTS-NMF, particularly the content (r = 0.519, p = 0.000) and delivery (r = 0.643, p = 0.000), had a positive correlation with discharge readiness. Conclusion: The findings enable nurses, midwives, and other healthcare professionals to understand discharge readiness and its related factors among first-time mothers undergoing cesarean section. It is also suggested that the quality of discharge teaching with a comprehensive assessment of first-time mothers preparing for discharge from the hospital and following the guideline to prevent post-cesarean section complications should be reinforced.

ABSTRACT Postpartum hemorrhages represent a major cause of maternal mortality everywhere in the world and in Romania obstetrical hemorrhages are directly incriminated in 47.85% from the cases reported between 1975 -2010. This retrospective study over a period of five years (2008 - 2012) includes the clinical-statistical analysis of postpartum hemorrhages (PPH) registered in “Prof. Dr. Panait Sîrbu” Clinical Hospital of Obstetrics and Gynecology in Bucharest. During the period under analysis there were 20204 births, out of which 13012 were vaginal and 7192 by caesarean section. There were 853 cases of postpartum hemorrhage with significant clinical manifestations, which required medical management, 4.22% of all births. In 459 cases there were reported hemorrhagic complications after caesarean section (6.368% of caesarean sections), representing 53.81% of postpartum hemorrhage. The severity of intra-operative and post-cesarean bleeding is due to its association to anesthetic risk, which is more important in cesarean, as well as to the associated pathology that indicated the caesarean section in the first place

Resumo: Para melhor compreender a alta incidência de cesarianas realizadas no mundo entre 2004 e 2005, a Organização Mundial da Saúde desenvolveu um estudo multicêntrico em 54 países, inclusive o Brasil: Esse estudo teve como objetivo principal criar um sistema global para monitorar os resultados de saúde materna e perinatal, verificando a sua associação com a forma de término do parto. Objetivo: Avaliar a prevalência de cesariana segundo características do hospital e características sociodemográficas e reprodutivas das mulheres nos estados de São Paulo, Pernambuco e no Distrito Federal. Material e Método: Estudo de corte transversal com dados do Sistema Global de Dados para a Saúde Materna e Perinatal, da Organização Mundial da Saúde. Analisaram-se dados de 15.379 mulheres que tiveram parto entre setembro de 2004 e março de 2005, realizando análises bivariada e por regressão logística múltipla. Resultados: A prevalência de cesarianas foi maior nos hospitais com índice de complexidade alta, com financiamento do atendimento pelo SUS e particular, em que havia só estudantes de medicina, e naqueles em que não havia parteiras envolvidas na atenção ao parto; entre mulheres com idade > 30 anos, com mais de oito anos de escolaridade, casadas/unidas, e com índice de massa corpórea > 30. Diversas condições apresentadas durante a gravidez ou parto, diagnóstico de HIV da parturiente, maior peso e perímetro cefálico do recém-nascido, e maior número de consultas de pré-natal se associaram a maior prevalência de cesariana. Na análise múltipla mostraram associação direta: presença de hipertensão/eclâmpsia, doenças crônicas, maior perímetro cefálico do recém-nascido, não ter nenhum nascimento anterior e ter tido cesárea na última gravidez. Conclusões: Condições patológicas da gravidez, características do recém-nascido e características reprodutivas da parturiente associaram-se independentemente à realização de cesariana, o que não se verificou com características dos hospitais e características sociodemográficas das parturientes. Isto, provavelmente, foi devido à homogeneidade da amostra estudada, tanto de hospitais quanto de mulheres
Abstract: In order to better understand the high incidence of C-sections in the world, the World Health Organization (WHO) carried out a multicentric study in 54 countries, including Brazil. Data were collected between 2004 and 2005. The study main objective was to create a global system for monitoring maternal and perinatal results and their association with mode of delivery. Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of cesarean-section in Brazil according to hospital and women¿s characteristics in the states of São Paulo, Pernambuco and the Federal District. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study using the Brazilian data from the 2005 WHO Global Survey on Maternal and Perinatal Health database. Data from 15,379 women who had a delivery between September 2004 and March 2005 in the selected hospitals were analyzed. The associations between categorical variables were tested by chi-square test and factors associated with caesarean section were identified by stepwise logistic regression. Results: The C-section prevalence was higher in the hospitals with higher complexity index, payment by SUS and private, where there were only medical students, midwives were not involved in delivery care, among women > 30 years old, with more than eight years of schooling, married/in union, and with body mass index > 30. Several conditions presented during pregnancy or childbirth, the mother¿ HIV diagnosis, the greater weight and newborn head circumference, and the highest number of pre-natal visits were also associated to higher prevalence of cesarean-section. In the multiple regression analyses the following variables were directly associated to C-section: presence of hypertension/eclampsia, chronic diseases, greater newborn head circumference, no previous birth and c-section in the last delivery. Conclusions: Pathological conditions during pregnancy, newborn characteristics and women¿s reproductive characteristics were independently associated with cesarean section, but this was not observed regarding hospitals characteristics and women¿s sociodemographic characteristics. This occurred, probably because the sample was very homogeneous

Os objetivos deste estudo foram: avaliar as freqüências de partos vaginais e cesáreas em mulheres portadoras de cardiopatias, bem como a distribuição dos partos nos diferentes subgrupos de doenças cardíacas: arritmias (A), cardiopatias congênitas (CC) e cardiopatias adquiridas (CA); analisar os fatores clínicos e obstétricos que estiveram relacionados à determinação da via de parto no grupo total de cardiopatas e também nos subgrupos, e avaliar a associação entre o tipo de parto e complicações clínicas e obstétricas. Foram analisados retrospectivamente os dados referentes a 571 gestações de 556 mulheres internadas para parto na Clínica Obstétrica do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo entre 2001 e 2005. A composição dos grupos foi: A - 57 casos (10%), CC - 163 casos (28,6%) e CA - 351 casos (61,4%). A taxas de cesárea foram 57,2% (total), 45,6% (A), 64,2% (CC) e 55,7% (CA). A indicação da cesárea foi obstétrica em 77% dos casos. Analisando os 425 casos sem cesáreas anteriores, as taxas de cesárea foram: 47,1% (total), 37,8% (A), 57,8% (CC) e 43,3% (CA). A probabilidade de parto cesáreo esteve relacionada à presença de cesárea anterior, idade gestacional no parto inferior a 37 semanas, presença de intercorrências obstétricas, diagnóstico de cardiopatia congênita, insuficiência cardíaca classe funcional (CF) III ou IV, e uso de medicamentos de ação cardiovascular. A paridade maior ou igual a um diminuiu a probabilidade de cesárea. A presença de cesárea anterior foi o principal fator relacionado à probabilidade de parto cesáreo nesta população. Nos subgrupos de cardiopatia (sem cesárea anterior) a probabilidade de cesárea esteve aumentada na presença dos seguintes fatores: A - uso de medicação cardiovascular; CC - CF III/IV e intercorrências obstétricas; CA -intercorrências obstétricas e idade gestacional no parto inferior a 37 semanas. A ocorrência de complicações obstétricas foi 6,8% (total), sendo maior em A (18,6%) e nos partos vaginais (10,7%); complicações clínicas maiores ocorreram em 2,5% dos casos e foram mais freqüentes nos casos de cesárea (3,8%). Conclusão: As taxas de cesárea observadas em gestante com cardiopatia foram elevadas (em especial nos casos de cardiopatia congênita) e correlacionadas à presença de cesárea anterior, insuficiência cardíaca CF III/IV, uso de medicamentos de ação cardiovascular, presença de intercorrências obstétricas e idade gestacional no parto inferior a 37 semanas.This study reviewed the data of 571 pregnancies in 556 pregnant women with heart disease admitted for delivery in a tertiary university hospital between 2001 and 2005. The objectives were to assess the prevalence of cesarean sections and vaginal births among the whole group of cases and in three subgroups: patients with arrhythmias (A - 57 cases / 10%), congenital diseases (CD - 163 cases / 28,6%) and acquired diseases (AD - 351 cases / 61,4%), and to determine the clinical and obstetrical factors related to the mode of delivery in the whole population and in the subgroups, as well as the association between the mode of delivery and clinical and obstetrical complications. The frequencies of cesarean sections were: 57,2% (whole population), 45,6% (A), 64,2% (CD) and 55,7% (AD); the cesarean sections were performed due to obstetrical reasons in 77% of the cases. In the 425 cases with no previous cesarean sections, the frequencies of c-sections deliveries were 47,1% (whole group), 37,8% (A), 57,8% (CD) and 43,3% (AD). The factors related to a higher probability of cesarean section were: previous cesarean section, gestational age at delivery of less than 37 weeks, presence of obstetrical events, diagnosis of congenital heart disease, heart failure (NYHA functional class III/IV) and use of cardiovascular drugs. The parity above 1 was related to a lesser probability of csections, and previous cesarean was the main factor related to the risk of abdominal delivery. In the cases with no previous cesarean sections, according to the subgroups of heart disease, the probability of cesarean section was heightened in the presence of the following factors: group A: use of cardiovascular drugs, CD: functional class III/IV and obstetrical events and AD: obstetrical events and gestational age in delivery less than 37 weeks. The rate of obstetrical complications was 6,8%, most of them in group A and in vaginal birth. Major clinical complications occurred in 2,5% of the cases, and were more related to cesarean sections (3,8%). Conclusion: the rates of cesarean sections observed in pregnant women with heart disease were high (mainly in the CD group), and related to previous cesarean sections, heart failure, use of cardiovascular drugs, presence of obstetrical events and gestational age at delivery less than 37 weeks.

Full textAbstract:
Vaginal delivery refers to the birth of offspring in mammals or babies in humans, through the vagina, also known as the “birth canal”. It is the natural method of birth for most mammals excluding those which lay eggs. For women who deliver vaginally, childbirth progresses in three stages: labor, delivery of the baby and delivery of the placenta. There are two types of vaginal delivery: Unassisted vaginal delivery and assisted vaginal delivery. In the later, this assistance can vary from use of medicines to emergency delivery procedures. The following types of vaginal delivery have been noted; (a) Spontaneous vaginal delivery (SVD) (b) Assisted vaginal delivery (AVD), also called instrumental vaginal delivery (c) Induced vaginal delivery and (d) Normal vaginal delivery (NVD), usually used in statistics or studies to contrast with a delivery by cesarean section. Delivery of a full-term newborn occurs at a gestational age of 37–42 weeks, usually determined by the last menstrual period or ultrasonographic dating and evaluation. Nearly 80% of newborns are delivered at full term while approximately 10% of singleton pregnancies are delivered preterm and 10% of all deliveries are post-term.
