Abstract:Uterine activity was studied during labor in 36 women who had previous cesarean sections. There was no difference in uterine activity between those delivered vaginally (66%) or those who needed repeat cesarean section, in overall values or at different cervical dilatations. Measurement of intrauterine pressure and electronic fetal monitoring helped reduce the need for repeat cesarean sections.
