ABSTRACT

There is continuous increase in cesarean section rate worldwide with associated increase in both maternal morbidity as well as mortality comparing to vaginal delivery. so necessity has arisen to find out why cesarean section rate is increasing and how we can reduce cesarean section rate. To evaluate Cesarean birth Rate & to analyze different indication and frequency of CS based on the Robson’s 10-group Classification system, so as to provide recommendation for reduction of CS rate. This is a retrospective case series. All the women delivered during June 2013 to December 2013 period of 7 months in the labor ward were included and Robson’s system was used to classify them into 10 groups. CS rate in each groups were calculated.Cesarean section rate found 394/1570 (25%). Previous cesarean section more than 37 weeks single cephalic(robson ten classification-5) found most imp. contributor 11.59% (182/1570). Robson’s ten classification is the efficient way to classify cesarean section according to their robson's ten classification group which suggest us where we have focus to decrease the cesarean section rate. We need to revise protocol for delivery of patient in group 5,1,2.
