This article discusses a study conducted in Greece to identify the factors contributing to the high rates of unnecessary Caesarean sections. The study involved 120 health professionals, including obstetricians, residents in obstetrics, and midwives, who were asked to select the top four reasons for the increased Caesarean section rates. The most commonly chosen reasons were "tocophobia/maternal request," "fear of litigation in case of dystocia," "Caesarean section convenience," and "improper labour induction." The study found that residents were concerned about their lack of training in CTG interpretation and VBAC, while experienced obstetricians emphasized the increased rates of maternal request and the defensive approach to labor due to fear of litigation. Midwives highlighted improper practices and the perception of Caesarean section as a quick and convenient mode of delivery. [Extracted from the article] |
