Abstract
Aim: To assess the impact of mode of delivery on the neonatal and maternal outcomes Study design: A cross-sectional study Place and Duration: This study was conducted at BMC Liaquat University of Medical Health Sciences Jamshoro Pakistan from February 2020 to February 2021. Methodology: The patients were divided into two groups and each group included 178 women. One group had undergone cesarean section and the other group had undergone normal vaginal delivery, and different maternal and neonatal outcomes were assessed including trauma, significant loss of blood, Apgar score, puerperal febrile morbidity, wound infection, and cord pH. Results: The study observed a higher rate of puerperal febrile morbidity and wound infections present in C-section. Similarly, blood loss was also significant in C-sections. However, neonatal complications were low and non-significant between the two groups. Conclusion: The study observed that increased maternal morbidity is associated with C-sections and women must be informed properly before making a choice of delivery. Keywords: Women, vaginal delivery, C-sections, morbidity
