Article Synopsis
- The study examines the rising rate of caesarean sections (CS) and its impact on maternal health, emphasizing the need for a standardized auditing system to address this trend.
- Conducted from October 2022 to March 2023, the research analyzed data from 260 women who underwent CS, revealing an overall rate of 31.4%, with specific groups contributing most to this number.
- The findings highlight that using the Modified Robson's Ten Group classification system can effectively audit and reduce unnecessary CS, ultimately improving maternal and fetal health outcomes.
