The control of the caesarean rate is nowadays an important concern for the obstetric world, the priority being to make every effort to practice a caesarean in all the women who need it only instead of reaching a specific rate. The purpose of the present study was to apply the Robson classification to the evaluation of the practice of caesarean section at the maternity of the Bogodogo District Hospital. It turned to be an analytical cross-sectional study which was carried out from January 1st, 2013 till December 31st, 2015. The information sources used included the computer base of caesarean sections, the delivery records, the operating room records, the delivery hall and the monthly activity reports. The overall hospital frequency of caesarean section was 33.3%. The rate of caesarean section expected during the same period according to the C-Model was 9.7%. Patients in groups 5 (with a scar uterus) and 6 (nulliparous with siege presentation) of the Robson classification had all a caesarean section and contributed to the overall rate of caesarean for 30 and 8.6% respectively. Low-risk women (groups 1, 2, 3 and 4) had a relative contribution of 31.3% to the overall rate of caesarean section. Improvement of the antenatal assessment of the prognosis of childbirth, particularly in the case of uterine scar or siege presentation, improvement of the quality of the supervision of the delivery work and the fight against prematurity will help to control the rate of caesarean section at the Bogodogo District Hospital. |
