Context: Among women with a prior caesarean section, 82.2% will have another caesarean delivery. The Society of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of Canada (SOGC) recommends that physicians offer medically eligible women with a previous caesarean section a trial of labour, to attempt a vaginal delivery. With greater inclusion of the patient in medical decision-making, it is important to understand women's part in this decision-making process.

This study investigates the history of caesarean section and women's experience of the operation today. There has been no systematic collection of historical data on caesarean section since 1944.

It illustrates the development of the medical ethos concerning women as patients and provides the background to the next phase of research: the experience of caesarean section.

Caesarean birth is the mode of delivery for almost a quarter of births in New Zealand (NZ), and as the rate steadily rises, the expectation of a ���natural birth��� remains ubiquitous in society. Research investigating the impact of caesarean birth has previously demonstrated mixed findings regarding psychological outcomes, and recently caesareans have become topical with the addition of the idiom ���too posh to push��� to our lexicon. This implies that caesarean is an easy option, and may have shaped a sense of stigma against caesareans, particularly elective caesareans. The previous res

Introduction Maternal obesity (defined as a body mass index (BMI) ≥30kg/m2) and overweight (defined as BMI 25-29.9kg/m2) have adverse implications for both the mother and the baby, including an increased risk of caesarean section. The prevalence of caesarean section among the UK obstetric population has been increasing in recent years. Evidence suggests that caesarean section in obese women may carry a higher risk of postoperative complications, such as haemorrhage, wound infection and delayed healing. These complications may result in a longer length of stay in hospital after caesarean delive

Incomplete healing of CS scars has become a recognised sequel to this operation, and is associated with complications in later pregnancies.

To date there is uncertainty relating to the recognition of poor scar healing and the factors that lead to it. In recent years, there has been an increase in studies using ultrasound imaging to describe scars as deficient, or incompletely healed.

Single shot spinal anaesthesia for caesarean section is currently accepted as the favoured method in the absence of contraindications, for reasons of safety and comfort. Firstly, there is an increased risk of failed intubation associated with general anaesthesia. Secondly, spinal anaesthesia, if practiced correctly, allows for a superior experience of the delivery and improved bonding with the infant.
