Top 5 Reasons for Cesarean Birth
Episode description
About one in three births are delivered by Cesarean Section, though this varies by province, country, and even community. About half of those are planned, also called “elective,” while the other half are emergency, or unplanned. Keep in mind that the term “emergency cesarean” is used to mean that delivery via cesarean section was not a birth preference, but does not always mean a true medical emergency which has to be performed as quickly as humanly possible. Join Drs. Sarah and Alicia as they share with us the top reasons Cesarean Sections are performed, both elective and unplanned. For additional info, check out our episode on What is Placenta Previa?
