Caesarean Delivery

A cesarean delivery, commonly called a C-section, is a surgical mode of birth. Cesarean section is done when vaginal birth is impossible or unsafe for the mother and the child. The delivery of a baby through a C-section, which is short for C-section meaning, occurs by making an incision on the mother's abdomen and uterus. This is because of many reasons, including some complications in labour, health problems of either the mother or the child, and other medical problems. A trained team does C-sections in hospitals to ensure the mother and child are safe. C-section delivery in Jabalpur is an excellent option for individuals in need.

Reasons for Caesarean Delivery

C-section delivery is not the first choice for childbirth, but there are several valid reasons why it may be recommended by healthcare professionals. Some of the common indications for a c-section include: 1. Fetal concern: A c-section may be required to hasten birth if the baby displays indications of concern during labor, such as an irregular heart rate. 2. Breech Presentation: If the baby is positioned feet or buttocks first, rather than headfirst, a c-section may be recommended as delivering a breech baby vaginally is risky. 5. Previous C-Sections: If a vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) is not advised or requested, women who have previously undergone a c-section may elect to have another one. 6. Maternal Health Concerns: A c-section may be the safer option in cases of preeclampsia, active genital herpes, or certain cardiac issues. 7. Failure to Progr...

Who is at Risk?

    A C-section is often safer for the mother and the baby than a vaginal birth. Sometimes, if there is a medical emergency, such as if your baby's heart rate drops dangerously low, an unanticipated C-section may be recommended. Like any other surgery, C-section delivery also involves certain risks, including: - Infection - Blood loss - Bladder injury - Placental abnormalities in future pregnancies - Embolism, i.e. breakage of a blood clot and its entry into the bloodstream - Bowel injury - Fetal injury - Weakness of the uterine wall due to a cut - Risks associated with general anesthesia

Types of C-section Incisions

    There are 3 types of Cesarean section incisions: Low transverse: This is also called a bikini incision because a low horizontal cut is made across the bikini line. Low vertical: This is similar to the transverse section, but a vertical cut is made across the lower abdomen instead of making a horizontal cut. High vertical: The shape of this incision is similar to a low vertical incision. However, the cut is made high up on the abdomen and across the stomach.

Preparation for Caesarean Delivery

    If you have a planned cesarean delivery, the preparations are as follows: - Discussion with the doctor on the procedure - Signing of consent forms for surgery - Discussing anaesthesia options - Cleaning of the surgical area - Insertion of catheter - Positioning of heart and blood pressure monitors - Insertion of IV to deliver medicines and fluid - In case of an unplanned, emergency C-section, the doctor will want to deliver the baby quickly to avoid risk to the mother, baby, or both. There will be no time to prepare, and mostly the cesarean will be under general anaesthesia, as it is fast. In Jabalpur, doctors discuss all the necessary preparations needed before the procedure.

Steps Involved in Caesarean Delivery

    A C-section can be done in various ways, but most involve these steps: - Showering at home with an antiseptic soap the night before and the morning of your C-section; - Not shaving your pubic hair within 24 hours of your C-section to avoid infection; - Having your abdomen cleansed at the hospital. Your gynecologist may prepare you for anesthesia, bathe your belly with an antiseptic, cover the incision site with a sterile drape, and raise a sterile curtain between your head and lower body before performing a caesarean section surgery. The doctor will next create a skin incision that extends into your belly. While the technique is the same for both types of caesareans, planned ones take longer. Soon after birth, you may hold your baby.

Recovery Care

    Compared to a vaginal delivery, a C-section needs more time for recovery. When the anesthetic wears off, you will begin to feel discomfort around the incision and gas pains. It could be challenging for you to take deep breaths or to move your body and press the pedals with ease. After giving birth, the majority of women stay in the hospital for two to three days. You might want help getting out of bed for a few days after giving delivery. Full healing may take up to six weeks.

Success Rate of Cesarean Delivery

    C-section births are generally successful. Considering its safety for both mother and child, currently, every third child born in India is via C-section.
