Changing rates of the modes of delivery over the decades (1976, 1986, 1996, 2006, and 2016) based on the Robson-10 group classification system in a single tertiary health care center

Cesarean Audit Using Robson Classification at a Tertiary Care Center in Bihar: A Retrospective Study

“…In this study, the overall CS rate was 38.16% which is much higher than that proposed by the WHO (10-15%) [ 1 ]. Cesarean procedures performed in the absence of a clinical justification do not reduce maternal or infant death rates if performed at a rate higher than 10-15% [ 10 ]. Robson’s groups 5, 2, 1, and 10 were the major contributors to the overall CS rate in our institution which was similar to other studies, although in a different order [ 11 , 12 ].…”

Clinical and Physician Factors Associated With Failed Operative Vaginal Delivery

“…O perative vaginal delivery rates are declining. [1][2][3] This is important not only because operative vaginal deliveries play a role in reducing primary cesarean birth rates among nulliparous individuals, 4 but also because operative vaginal delivery failure is associated with significant increases in both severe maternal and neonatal morbidity when compared with cesarean birth in labor. 5 Although prior studies have examined factors associated with operative vaginal delivery failure, few have identified modifiable factors and even fewer have been able to ascertain a potentially critical factor-physician experience.…”

An audit of caesarean section in a semi urban hospital in northern cross river state Nigeria utilizing the robson-10 criteria

“…It was much higher than the 10-15% rate recommended by the World Health Organization. It has been affirmed that caesarean section rates higher or lower than this recommended rate do not protect against poor maternal and neonatal outcomes and rather could endanger the obstetric population [10,27,28].…”
