Background: Caesarean section is one of the most commonly performed major surgeries in obstetric practice intended to save the mother and child in turn reducing maternal and perinatal mortality. The steadily increasing global rate of caesarean section has become one of the most debated topics in maternity care. The objective of this study is to identify the factors influencing caesarean section delivery in the study area.Methods: This is a community based cross sectional study conducted among 66 women who underwent caesarean section in urban slum of field practice area of KIMS Nalgonda from January 2017 to February 2017. Information regarding socio demographic factors, indication of caesarean section, maternal and neonatal outcome was recorded in pre-designed pretested questionnaire.Results: The rate of caesarean section (CS) in this study was 55.9%. The commonest indication for elective caesarean was previous caesarean section (59.5%) and for emergence caesarean section the commonest indication was fetal distress (50%). 47.6% in elective group and 62.5% in emergency underwent caesarean section in government hospitals, 52.38% in elective group and 37.5% in emergency underwent caesarean section in private nursing homes.Conclusions: Elective caesarean sections are more common than emergency sections. Most of the caesarian sections were in the age group of 18-25 years, Hindus, BC community, house wives, who have studied up to intermediate and above, below poverty line group and in multigravida women. Common indication for elective CS was previous CS and for emergency CS was fetal distress.

Caesarean Section Delivery

The rate of labor with sectio caesarean still exceeds from WHO recommendations. The purpose of this study is to determine the Factors who associated with Sectio caesarea in RS DKT in 2017.This study used survey analytic approach with cross sectional design. Population in this study were all labor mother in RS DKT in 2017 with the amount of 1143 people. Sampling technique used proportional random sampling, obtained sample with the amount of 296 people with sample proportion labor mother with sectio caesarea with the amount of 229 people, and labor mother pervaginam 67 people.The results of the study were: (1) from 296 mothers giving birth at DKT Hospital in 2017 there were 77.4% of women giving birth with caesarean section delivery and 22.6% of vaginal delivery mothers, 14.2% of mothers giving birth with fetal distress and 85.6% not fetal distress, 26.7% of women giving birth with DKP / CPD and 73.3% of mothers who were not DKP, 93.6% of mothers gave birth with BPJS financing and 6.4% with general financing; (2) There is a significant relationship between fetal distress and mid-category caesarean section and having a mother with a fetal distress has a risk of 1,358 times for a caesarean section compared with a mother without fetal distress; (3) There is a significant relationship between DKP / CPD with mid-caesarean section and moderate category and women with DKP / CPD have a risk of 1,447 times for caesarean section compared to mothers without PHO; (4) There is no meaningful relationship between BPJS funding and sectio caesarea. It was suggested to health workers to provide services to patients as needed nad also to  improve health promote to avoid caesarean section delivery especially in adult women, mother and also prospective mother, in order to better undertand that normla lanor has lower risk for mother wich has not a complications history in her pregnancy and childbirth.

Introduction: Advanced and very advanced maternal age are associated with several adverse maternal and fetal outcome. The objective of this study was to find out the possible association between advance maternal age and adverse pregnancy outcomes at Manipal Teaching Hospital.Methods: A cross sectional analytical study conducted at department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Manipal Teaching Hospital, Pokhara, Nepal. A total of 198 patient who were ≥30 years and >24 weeks pregnant admitted in obstetric ward were selected. These patient were divided into three groups according to their age (30-34, 35-39 and ≥ 40years). We compared the incidence of adverse maternal and perinatal outcome among these groups. We also calculated odds ratio of maternal and perinatal outcomes in 35-39 years and ≥ 40years women, compared with women aged 30-34 years.Results: Comparison of the three age groups revealed that advanced maternal age constitute a predisposing factor for malpresentation, gestational diabetes mellitus, placenta previa, fetal distress and caesarean section. Whereas, risk of non progress of labour, preterm birth, postpartum hemorrhage, perinatal death and congenital anomalies were increased in very advanced maternal age group. From these, statistical significance was reached in case of greater risk of malpresentation (p=0.01,OR=6.66), fetal distress (p=0.04, OR=2.6) and caesarean section(p=0.02,OR=2.06) in advanced age group when compared to the patients aged 30-34. Furthermore, very advanced age group were higher risk of postpartum hemorrhage (p=0.03, OR=2.47) and congenital anomalies, which were statistically significant (p=0.04, OR=29.57) when compared to the 30-34 years.Conclusion: Advanced and very advanced maternal age is associated with several adverse maternal and perinatal outcome. The risk of perinatal complication begin to increase after the age of 35 but significantly increased after 40 years.

Robson Classification

Background: The frequency of caesarean sections (CS) increased dramatically in the world over the last twenty years. The objective of this study was to evaluate caesarean section practices based on Robson classification in an urban referral hospital in Conakry, GuineaMethods: We conducted a cross-sectional study of 2,266 birthing records collected at the maternity ward of the Coronthie Communal Medical Center in Conakry, from January 1st to December 31st 2016. We included in the study all women who had a caesarean section and whose medical records were complete. Robson's classification was used to classify women into 10 groups based on maternal and fetal characteristics. The relative size of each group, its gross caesarean section rate as well as its contribution to overall caesarean section rate and the main caesarean section indications were calculated.Results: In 2016, 769 caesarean sections were performed out of 2,266 deliveries, corresponding to a hospital section rate of 33.9%. Groups 5 (11.0%), 1 (4.8%), and 3 (4.3%) of the Robson classification were the most contributors to registered hospital caesarean section rate. The main indications for caesarean section were uterine scar in group 5 and acute fetal distress in groups 1 and 3.Conclusions: The systematic reference to the Robson classification could help to identify and avoid the relative indications of the caesarean section in urban Guinea. Besides, increasing induction of labor and strengthening providers’ capacities in emergency obstetric and newborn care services could contribute to reduce caesarean section rates in Guinea.

Lower Segment Cesarean Section

Background: Though WHO recommends a rate of 10-15% caesarean section for a given hospital, there has been a rising trend worldwide. We estimated the recent incidence of caesarean section in Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, P.D.U. Medical College, Rajkot (Gujarat and correlated these rates with the socioeconomic, demographic, and health variables.Methods: We have studied 1000 cases of lower segment caesarean section (cross sectional study) at Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, P.D.U Medical College, Rajkot (Gujarat) to find out rate of caesarean section, common maternal and fetal indication and complications of lower segment caesarean section.Results: Caesarean section rate of the present study is 19.9%. Most common indication of LSCS was scarred uterus 39.9%.followed by fetal distress 19.1%, malpresentation 18.6%, and failed induction 7.3%. Maternal morbidities and mortalities in emergency LSCS in compare to elective LSCS. Analysis based on Robson’s ten-group showed that group 5 (Previous CS, single cephalic,>37 weeks) made the greatest contribution to total CS rate.Conclusions: Scientific advances, social and cultural changes, and medico legal considerations seem to be the main reasons for the increased acceptability of caesarean sections. The decision to perform a C-section delivery must be chosen carefully and should not be profit oriented. There is a possibility of keeping the rate to minimum by reducing number of primary caesarean sections, by proper counseling of the patients, proper monitoring and patience.

Introduction: The cardiotocography (CTG) is more commonly knows aselectronic fetal monitoring (EFM). A cardiotocography measures the fetal heart and the frequencyof uterine contractions. Using two separate disc shaped transducers. Objectives: The objectiveof this study is to co-relate the intrapartum cardiotocography monitoring with fetomaternaloutcome. Study Design: Cross sectional analytical study. Setting: Department of Obstetricsand Gynaecology, Shaikh Zayed Hospital, Lahore, Pakistan. Period: From September 2012 toMarch 2013 (Six Months). Patient & Method: Total 60 patients (pregnant females) fulfilling theinclusion criteria were selected for this study, who were admitted in labour room in early andactive labour. In group A normal CTG monitoring and in Group B women with abnormal CTGmonitoring. Maternal outcomes in terms of mode of delivery and fetal outcome (APGAR Score,neonatal seizures, admission to nursery and time of neonatal discharge were seen). Result: Themean age in group A was 26.13+3.90 years and in group B was 26.53+4.17 years. The meangestational age in group A was 38.40+1.50 weeks and in group B was 36.60+1.59 weeks. Ingroup A, 25 (83.3%) woman were delivered through spontaneous vaginal birth and 4(13.4%)women, who were delivered by caesarean section (for all indication except fetal distress), 1(3.3%) woman by assisted vaginal birth (for all other indications). In group B there were 7(23.8%)women who delivered through spontaneous vaginal birth. 3(10%) women by assisted vaginalbirth (for abnormal CTG monitoring) and 20(66.7%) women by caesarean section (for abnormalCTG). In group A, there were 7(23.3%) neonates who were admitted in nursery, while in groupB, there were 19(63.3%) neonates, who were admitted in nursery. Conclusion: Intrapartumexternal fetal cardiotocography is not a single indicator of fetal distress. An increased caesareansection rate in babies with a pathological cardiotocography stresses on the need for additionaltests to differentiate hypoxic fetuses from non-hypoxic.

Introduction: Caesarean Section (CS) is a surgical procedure carried out for thedelivery of the baby when circumstances render the possibility of a safe vaginal birth. Thoughcaesarean section can be life-saving in many situations, its unnecessary use has become a globalhealth concern. For almost 3 decades, the ideal rate for caesarean sections was consideredto be between 10% and 15% but its consistently increasing frequency over the past years hasbrought it to limelight. Objective: To determine the frequency and indications of Caesareansection at DHQ Teaching Hospital, Sahiwal. Study Design: A Cross-sectional descriptive study.Setting: Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, DHQ Teaching Hospital, Sahiwal affiliatedwith Sahiwal Medical College, Sahiwal. Period: It was carried out over a period of 6 monthsfrom December, 2016 to May, 2017. Methods: All the caesarean sections carried out during thestudy duration were included. Both maternal and fetal indications were recorded. The patientsnot willing to participate were not included. Results: Out of the total, Caesarean Sectionaccounted for 44.7% of the total deliveries. 72.05 % were elective and 27.49% were emergencyprocedures. Most Common Indications were found out to be previous >2 C-Sections (36.4%),previous 1 C-Section (28.3%). Rest of them were breech presentation (2.69%), obstructed labor(1.68%), fetal distress (2.6%), placenta previa (8.08%), APH (2.02%), post-dated pregnancy(4.04%), uterine rupture (7.56%) and others (6.58%). Conclusion: It was concluded that >2previous C-Sections is the most common indication. The high frequency should be controlledby proper counselling and education of the mothers and families, regarding the complicationsof caesarean section.

Lower Segment Caesarean Section

Background: Lower segment caesarean section (LSCS) is a surgical intervention, which is carried out to ensure the safety of mother and baby when vaginal delivery is not possible or when danger to mother and baby would be greater with vaginal delivery. This study is designed to identify indication of LSCS and detect complications if any among the respondents. Materials and methods: Cross sectional descriptive study where 95 female doctors of Chattogram were selected by convenient sampling without knowing their mode of delivery and if it is LSCS then indication of LSCS , maternal and neonatal complications were noted. Results: Age of the respondents at the time of interview were noted and most of them were between 31- 40 years 52 (55%), regarding income most of them between 100000 -200000 42(44%) most of the delivery occurred in the private clinics 92 (70%) regarding mode of delivery, LSCS was 92 (70%) vaginal delivery 40 (30%) regarding indications of LSCS most common was repeat caesarean section 27 (29%) and second common was LSCS due to maternal interest 18 (20%) and others were severe preeclampsia 10 (11%) fetal distress 08(09%) placenta previa, Diabetes with big baby, cephalopelvic disproportion, PROM with non progression of labour. PPH was the most common complication 05 (63%), next was paralytic ileus 02 (25%) and left ventricular failure 01 (12%). Common neonatal comoplications were low birth weight baby 904 (40%), prematurity 03 (30%) and birth asphyxia 03 (03%). Conclusion: LSCS is a major surgical procedure for delivery. Inspite of its low maternal morbidity and mortality due to improved surgical technique, modern aneasthetic skill and availability of blood and blood products, still it carries a slightly greater risk in subsequent pregnancy, so we should be rational in doing primary caesarean section.
