CAESAREAN SECTION - CHANGING TRENDS DURING LAST TWO DECADES.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Changing trends of caesarean section during last twenty years have been studied. There seems to be a gradual increase in the incidence of caesarean section over the years with a simultaneous decline in the perinatal mortality rate. The incidence of caesarean section has slowly been increasing for post-caesarean pregnancy, breech presentation and foetal distress. This opens up a debate as to what extent this increase is justifiable. The trend needs a close observation.
