Caesarean Delivery

You need to be aware of your delivery options when you are pregnant. Either a natural birth (through the vagina) or a cesarean section (by C-section) is used to deliver the baby. In a C-section delivery, your baby is delivered through an incision created in the abdomen and uterus. This procedure is recommended if vaginal birth is risky or impractical or when your or your baby’s health is at stake.

Reasons for Caesarean Delivery

Some common indications of a Cesarean section include: - Obstructions like a uterine fibroid or a pelvic fracture, or if your child is expected to have a congenital anomaly; - Cephalopelvic disproportion, where either the head or body of your baby too large or it is small for normal and safe delivery. - The transverse position of your baby, where it lies horizontally or sideways in the uterus; - Breech position of your baby, i.e. its feet or buttocks enter the pelvis first at the time of delivery; - Having a c-section history; - Expecting multiple births, i.e. twins or more; - Placenta Previa, where the blood vessels that connect the placenta to your uterus may tear, making it dangerous for both mother and the baby; - Genetic herpes-like health condition. Your doctor may consider an unplanned C-section if labour isn't progressing, the umbilical cord is encircled around your baby's neck or body, the placenta detaches from the uterine wall before your baby is born, and there is foetal distress, or your baby's heart rate is irregular during labour.

Who is at Risk?

    C-section delivery, like any surgical procedure, carries both potential complications and benefits. Complications: 1. Infection: Infection at the incision site, in the uterus, or in the pelvic cavity is a possibility. 2. Hemorrhage: Excessive bleeding may occur during or during surgery. 3. Adverse Anesthesia responses: Some women may have negative anesthesia responses. 4. Blood Clots: Deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism are both risks of blood clot formation in the legs. 5. Longer Recovery: Compared to vaginal delivery, the recovery time following a c-section is often longer. Benefits: 1. Life-Saving Procedure: In some cases, a c-section is the safest way to deliver the baby, preventing potential complications. 2. Controlled Environment: The controlled surgical environment allows healthcare providers to closely monitor and manage any complications during childbirth. 3. Scheduled Birth: In planned c-sections, the date and time of the birth can be scheduled, making it convenient for both the parents and medical team. 4. Lessened Risk of Birth Trauma: A c-section can lessen the risk of birth trauma in situations when a vaginal delivery could harm the infant. 5. Reproductive Health: C-sections, particularly when problems emerge following a vaginal birth, can protect a woman's reproductive health.

Types of C-section Incisions

    There are 3 types of Cesarean section incisions: Low transverse: A low horizontal cut is made across the bikini line in this procedure, which is also known as a bikini incision. Low vertical: This procedure resembles a transverse section, except a vertical cut is made across the lower abdomen as opposed to a horizontal one. High vertical: This incision resembles a low vertical incision in terms of shape. However, the stomach is cut horizontally and high up on the abdomen.

Preparation for Caesarean Delivery

    Prior to having a C-section delivery, your doctor could suggest that you undergo certain blood tests to examine your red blood cell count and determine your risk of anesthesia-related issues. Speak with your doctor well before your due date about the possibility of a C-section, even if your doctor has suggested a vaginal birth.

Steps Involved in Caesarean Delivery

    Discussed below are the steps involved in cesarean delivery: - In a planned C-section surgery, an epidural is usually used. Sometimes, general anaesthesia is given, but this is mostly in emergencies. - Cleaning of the abdomen's surgical area with an antiseptic - Placing sterile drapes around the incision site and lower body. - Place a sterile cloth or drape between the head and lower body. - The doctor will then make an incision on the abdomen, vertical or horizontal. - The surgeon will make an incision into the uterus wall, again horizontal or vertical. - Then, the doctor will remove the baby through the incisions. - The umbilical cord is incised, and the placenta is taken out. - The incisions are stitched up and closed. Skilled doctors in Indore carry out all the steps involved with utmost care and attention.

Recovery Care

    The full C-section recovery time is about four to six weeks, but it can vary from patient to patient. Some recovery care tips are discussed below: - Take plenty of rest - Manage the pain of the C-section surgery with medicines - Exercise lightly - Keep the wound clean - Look out for infections If you follow these, your C-section recovery will proceed fast and smoothly. For more detailed tips to recover quickly after the procedure, consult doctors in Indore.

Success Rate of Cesarean Delivery

    The world Caesarean section rates have increased from 7% in 1990 to almost double that rate at 21% now and further. There are clear disparities in access, where sub-Saharan Africa rates are as low as 5%, while rates may be as high as 43% in Latin America and the Caribbean. The projections suggest that there can be increased rates, especially in Eastern Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, Western Asia, Northern Africa, Southern Europe, and Australia and New Zealand, up to 63%. The succession rates also differ based on the type, and in Indore, it is carried forward.
