The concentration of thromboxane B2 has been measured in the plasma of women during late pregnancy, during term and pre-term labour, in women with pre-eclampsia and in umbilical cord arterial and venous plasma. In addition, the rates of production of thromboxane B2 in vitro were determined for placental tissues obtained after spontaneous vaginal delivery or elective Caesarean section. The results obtained indicate significant differences during parturition between the sources and controlling mechanisms of thromboxane and prostaglandin production.

Women with one previous caesarean section have 0.05% risk of uterine rupture, with two caesarean sections the risk increase to 1.36%. We could not find data on the risk of uterine rupture after three caesarean sections. Elective caesarean section is therefore offered to these women by their clinical professionals to eliminate the risk. However, we report a case of spontaneous vaginal delivery with an intact uterine scar in a woman with a previous three caesarean sections to show the possibility of vaginal birth in patients with repeated caesarean section. A 32-year-old female in her 4th pregnancy with previous three caesarean section 1st two emergencies and 3rd elective (Gravida 4, para 3) presented to the delivery suite in spontaneous labour at 39 weeks and 3 days with vaginal bleeding. Emergency call gone off and patient was transferred immediately to theatre, during transfer she pushed down while she was on the wheel chair and the baby head found to be delivered vaginally. A live healthy baby girl weighing 2590 g was delivered. The patient had Postpartum bleeding of 500 ml and 2nd degree perineal and labial tears; the patient was discharged home fit and well on day one postpartum. Repeated caesarean section increases maternal mortality and morbidity. Vaginal birth after repeated previous caesarean sections could still be an option in selected cases as safe vaginal delivery has been reported.

Background: The main aim of this study is to determine the maternal and fetal outcome of pregnancy among women with one previous caesarean section at term in relation to vaginal delivery, post partum complication, neonatal complication like low Apgar score, fetal weight and admission in special baby unit. Methods: This is a prospective and descriptive study done in a sample size of 100. Inclusion criteria were term pregnancy, single live fetus with cephalic presentation with one previous caesarean section. During study period total number of obstetric admissions was 3546 and 115 cases were admitted with previous one caesarean section. Result: Out of 100 cases, 31 cases had vaginal delivery and 69 cases had caesarean section. Among 31 vaginal deliveries, 24 cases had spontaneous vaginal delivery and 7 had assisted delivery with vacuum, main indication of vacuum delivery was to cut short the second stage of labor that was in 5(71.43%) cases. Among 69 caesarean section cases, 51 had emergency caesarean section and 18 had elective caesarean section and cephalopelvic disproportion was the main indication in both the groups. Most common complication was scar dehiscence and postpartum hemorrhage. There were two still births in each group and one minute APGAR score was slightly better in caesarean section. Conclusions: Patients with previous caesarean section are at high risk of repeat emergency or elective caesarean section. About one in three patients with previous caesarean section delivered vaginally. In the present study postpartum hemorrhage was the commonest complication, which was found in caesarean section, and only  one puerperal pyrexia was seen in case of vaginal delivery.

Introductions: Caesarean section is rising. The best method of delivery, vaginal or caesarean, for postpartum quality of life in women is a matter of controversy both from professionals’ perspectives and from women’s experience of childbirth. This study analyses quality of life after these two methods of deliveries.Methods: This was a cross-sectional comparative study in postnatal care outpatient department at Patan Hospital. Primipara women with normal delivery and elective caesarean section done in Patan Hospital were enrolled to analyse postpartum quality of life. The SF-12 questionnaire tool at 6 weeks post delivery was used to compare age, ethnicity, education, family type and employment. Data was analysed using ANOVA test for descriptive parameters.Results: There were 468 primipara, age 30-45 years, 94% in 15-30 years77.8% educated, 74.4% in joint family,73.5% housewife. Normal vaginal delivery was 360 (72.6%) and 128 (27.4%) elective caesarean. Vaginal delivery group had average SF score of Physical Health Composite Score of 68.7, Mental Health CompositeScore69.5 and total SF score 67.7. While in caesarean group, it was 64.8,64.1 and 63.4.Conclusions: Normal vaginal delivery had better quality of life resulting in both superior physical as well as mental health.Journal of Patan Academy of Health Sciences, Vol. 2, No. 2, 2015. page:13-18

Increased Risk

Introduction: Compared with a fetus with cephalic presentation, a breech fetus faces increased risk during labour and delivery of asphyxia from cord compression and of traumatic injury during delivery of the shoulders and head. Caesarean section avoids most of this risk. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of vaginal delivery of uncomplicated singleton breech presentation by evaluating early neonatal morbidity and mortality as well as maternal morbidity following vaginal and caesarean delivery for breech presentation. Materials and Methods: This is a cross sectional comparative study.104 women with singleton breech presentation at term in labour were included consequetively in labour ward of Institute of Child and Mother Health (ICMH). Informed consent was taken from them. Neonatal and maternal outcome were recorded and statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 22. Results: APGAR at 5 min and Neonatal Intensive Care Unite (NICU) admission were not affected by mode of delivery. Long term neonatal outcome is similar in either mode of delivery. Maternal morbidity and duration of hospital stay is increased in caesarean births. Conclusion: Neonatal outcome did not depend on mode of delivery though maternal morbidity and cost of care is increased following Caesarean Section. Proper selection of cases and by improving skill & confidence in new generation obstetrician, vaginal delivery of singleton fetuses in breech presentation at term remains a safe option that can be offered to a woman in a tertiary care centre.
