A comparison of the yearly statistics of National Maternity Hospital (Dublin) and University Hospital (Newark) was undertaken for the years 1983-1989. The findings appear to indicate that after the elimination of major confounding factors, the substantially higher rates of Caesarean section in Newark (17.5% versus 5.8%) did not bring about a measurable reduction in the rate of neonatal losses. The impact of paediatric care upon the respective neonatal outcomes could not be assessed on the ground of the reviewed data.

Enhancing Perinatal Safety with the Advancement of Obstetric Anesthesia in Japan.
Womens Health Rep (New Rochelle)
January 2025
Department of Anesthesia, National Center for Child Health and Development, Tokyo, Japan.
Japan is one of the most developed countries in the world, and perinatal care is safe, with low maternal and neonatal mortality rates. However, as birthrate declines, advanced maternal age and the number of cesarean deliveries increases, efforts must be made to maintain safety in the future. The characteristic of the delivery facilities is "many small clinics," and half of all facilities have fewer than 500 deliveries per year.

Intensive Crit Care Nurs
January 2025
Department of Environmental Engineering, Yildiz Technical University, İstanbul, Turkey.
Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) are the most common postoperative complications after cesarean section (CS), with increased mortality, prolonged hospital stays, and increased healthcare costs.
Objective: To systematically estimate the global incidence and identify the risk factors associated with SSI, focusing on the variation between high- and low-income countries.
Search Strategy And Selection Criteria: Observational studies reporting on the incidence of SSI after CS were systematically searched in PubMed, Embase and SCOPUS.
