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 enci...

Who is at Risk?

    In most cases, a C-section is safer for the mother and the infant than a vaginal delivery. An unplanned C-section operation may occasionally be advised in the event of a medical emergency, such as when your baby's heart rate falls dangerously low. Like any other surgery, even C-section delivery involves certain risks. These include the following: - 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: 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

    To monitor the number of red blood cells and assess the possibility of anesthesia complications, your doctor may advise that you have certain blood tests before having a C-section. Discuss the prospect of a C-section with your gynecologist well before your due date, even if your doctor has recommended a vaginal delivery.

Steps Involved in Caesarean Delivery

    You must reach out to the professional in Dhanbad for faster recovery. Steps involved in a Cesarean delivery include: - Anesthesia preparation: The nature of the injury and level of consciousness would determine if to administer an epidural or general anesthesia. - Abdominal preparation: Give antiseptic treatment to the abdomen and oxygen ventilation to the baby. - Sterile draping: Covering the wound site, legs, and chest with a clean drape and a curtain between the head and the lower body section. - Incision: Cutting through the skin and abdominal wall, usually in a vertical or bikini incision. - Uterine incision: Cutting a 3 to 4-inch cross-section incision on the side of the uterine wall. - Baby delivery: Cutting the umbilical cord and then removing the placenta. - Incision closure: The stapling and stitching of the incisions. In emergency C-sections, the procedure is similar to normal, except that removing the baby takes only a few minutes. When mothers are awake during the process, they can have immediate contact with their newborn after the birth.

Recovery Care

    More recovery time is needed following a C-section than a vaginal delivery. When the anesthetic wears off, gas pains and incisional discomfort will begin. You could find it challenging to breathe deeply or to move your body and press the pedals with ease. Most mothers stay in the hospital after birth for two to three days after birth. You might want help getting out of bed for a few days after giving delivery. Full recovery may take up to six weeks.

Success Rate of Cesarean Delivery

    C-section deliveries are generally successful. nowadays, every third child born in India is through a C-section delivery.
