“…Other studies have reported an independent influence of the mode of delivery per se on rates of respiratory morbidity, regardless of gestational age [5,6,11]. A popular hypothesis is that the mechanism of labor itself promotes neonatal respiratory function.…”

“…Several reports addressing neonatal morbidity after ECD have had various conclusions. Most of these studies reported an increase in neonatal respiratory morbidity, especially due to respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn, and transient tachypnea of the newborn (TTN) [4][5][6][7].…”

Objective The purpose of this investigation was to examine the economic impact of performing elective repeat cesarean during the 37th or 38th week of gestation relative to the ACOG recommendation of 39 week delivery. Methods Decision analysis modeling was used to estimate economic outcomes for a hypothetical cohort of neonates using data from the NICHD/MFMU study entitled “Timing of elective repeat cesarean delivery at term and neonatal outcomes.” Costs and charges were estimated using the Florida Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project. Results 82,541 deliveries occurring between 37–39 complete weeks gestation were analyzed for the incidence of adverse outcomes and their hospital costs and charges. The model demonstrated increased costs through increasing adverse outcomes among elective repeat cesarean deliveries performed prior to 39 weeks gestation. Conclusion Our findings suggest that there are benefits to waiting until 39 weeks of gestation to perform an elective repeat cesarean delivery.

“…How ever, the risk of respiratory problems in in fants delivered by the abdominal route has been well documented and the associated neonatal morbidity and mortality have been repeatedly emphasized [5,9,12,13,40,42]. A recent study of respiratory disease in in fants confirms that those born by the abdom inal route are at a higher risk of developing respiratory distress syndrome and further more that the condition is not likely to be iatrogenic [32].…”

Cesarean section (CS) has been an integral part of modern obstetrics during the last decades. As safety has increased, so too has the range of problems that CS is used to solve, to a degree that it must cause medical concern. There is a great danger in the blind faith that CS is the only way out in every difficult obstetric situation. The problem can always be easily solved by CS in an acute difficult obstetrical situation. However, CS is a major abdominal surgery and it may present any complication that besets major surgery including severe intraoperative and postoperative complications, a much greater risk for maternal death compared to vaginal delivery and also late complications, i.e. secondary involuntary infertility. Therefore, CS should never be undertaken lightly and without serious consideration of the justifications, preparations and all ancillary support.
