Filter by:The incidence of caesarean section has reached 15-20% in most developed countries. Encouraging vaginal birth after caesareans section (VBAC) has been considered a key component of a strategy to reduce the caesarean section rate. Most medical literature has focused on the efficacy of VBAC in reducing the caesarean section rate and the physical safety of successful VBAC. However, 30%-40% of these women fail to achieve a vaginal delivery. Little is known about how the uncertainty of labour outcome and a failed VBAC impact on the psychosocial function of these women. We propose to study a cohort of women with a prior caesarean section and presenting with a subsequent pregnancy for care. After consent and recruitment, these subjects will be randomly assigned to have a repeat caesarean section or VBAC. The medical outcomes, overall satisfaction of the subjects with the care they received, and the short-term psychosocial function of these subjects will be studied. The result of this study will provide important information that would be useful in assisting women to decide the mode of delivery after a prior caesarean section.
Cesarean section-associated hypotension is one of the pivotal factors to influence the Apgar Score of children and related with the stable hemostasis during the whole process of labor. How to keep circulation in a consistent stability is yet to be known. The investigators hypothesized that different fluids, crystalloids or colloids, can produced varying effects in keeping the physiological environment of labor from significant fluctuating.
The purpose of this research study is to investigate if the incidence of nausea and vomiting that subjects experience during and after a Cesarean section can be reduced by giving a shot of the drug ephedrine into the thigh muscle at the time of spinal anesthesia administration.
The purpose of this study is to determine if there are differences in operative blood loss with manual vs. spontaneous removal of the placenta during cesarean section.
The aim of this study is to evaluate a possible correlation between predictive precesarean section pain and development of postcaesarean section pain using the PM. Patients and Methods 46 healthy pregnant women scheduled for elective cesarean section is included after informed consent. The standard operation procedures included spinal anesthesia, paracetamol 1 g 8 hourly, diclofenac 50 mg 8 hourly and oxycontine 10 mg x 2. Morphine was used for break-through pain. Before cesarian section the threshold for sensory and pain were measured 3 times, and the average was used for analyses. After cesarian section a blinded midwife assess the pain at rest and during mobilization every 12th hours over 2 days score. Data was analyzed using AUC and non-parametric test, P < 0,05.
This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of physiotherapy applications in early postcesarean problems.
