Audit of CS rate in NTSV: A Quality Improvement Project
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Introduction Caesarean delivery is a life-saving procedure when medically indicated, but associated with negative impact on maternal and neonatal outcomes. Each C-delivery increases complication rates for women. Many pregnant women undergo procedures such as C-sections, repeat C-sections, and labour inductions that may not be medically indicated. NTSV includes low risk, first time mom nulliparous, singleton (no twins) with gestational age at or beyond 37wk with vertex presentation (no breech or transverse lie) who underwent cs following either spontaneous or induced labour. By decreasing the C-section rate in this low risk population by improved quality care can lead to healthy outcomes and cost effectiveness.
