Providers' perspective on vaginal birth after cesarean birth: a qualitative systematic review.

Background: Vaginal Birth after Cesarean Birth (VBAC) is a birth mode recommended for reducing repeat cesarean which potentially contributes to adverse outcomes. However, VBAC is not normally practiced in some countries. Providers are an important part of the decision-making process on modes of birth among pregnant individuals.

Examining Cesarean Among Individuals of Advanced Maternal Age in Nurse-Midwifery Care.

Introduction: Cesarean rates are rising, especially for individuals of advanced maternal age (AMA), defined as aged 35 or older. The Robson 10-Group Classification System (TGCS) facilitates assessment and comparison of cesarean rates among individuals in different settings. In midwifery-led care, in which pregnant people are typically healthier and seek a vaginal birth, it is unknown whether individuals of AMA have different antecedents leading to cesarean compared with younger counterparts.
