Cesarean Delivery Rates and Changing Indications in Our Clinic Between 2000 - 2010

Abstract

The study was conducted for the evaluation of cesarean rates and changing indications of cesarean birth in our clinic through a 10-year period. We retrospectively evaluated the birth records in our clinic between the years 2000 and 2010. In a total of 10239 births, there were 5135 (%50.10) normal vaginal births versus 5104 (49.90%) cesarean births through a 10-year period. The cesarean rate was 41.88% in the year 2000 but increased to 54.12% in 2010 (p=0.021). The very most common indication for cesarean delivery was previous cesarean delivery and the rate increased from 25.06% to 39.50% within 10- year period (p<0.001). In contrast, elective cesarean rate decreased from 5.78% to 0.58% within this period (p<0.001). The cesarean rate gradually increased within 10- year period in our clinic. This rise is attributed to increased rate of previous cesarean delivery and is a causative effect on placentation anomalies. The cesarean rates can be decreased by estimating objective selection criteria for cesarean delivery, by decreasing cesareans on demand and by increasing the role of midwifes in obstetrical practice.
