Abstract

Background & Objective: Due to the uncertainties of maternal and neonatal complications after delivery and the lack of similar studies in this regard, this study aimed to compare the maternal and fetal complications of vaginal birth after C-Section (VBAC), natural delivery and repeat Cesarean section in Isfahan province. Materials & Methods: In this one-year descriptive cross-sectional study, 49889 pregnant women who had the natural childbirth (29631 deliveries), elective repeat Cesarean section (20148 deliveries) and VBAC delivery (110 deliveries) were enrolled, then maternal and neonatal complications were compared in three groups. Results: There was a significant difference between the three groups based on the maternal and neonatal outcome, Apgar scores in the first and fifth minutes after delivery and the need for resuscitation at birth (P <0.05). Neonatal outcome was better in natural delivery and then VBAC compared to repeat C-section, respectively. Maternal outcome was better in VBAC and then repeat C-section than the natural childbirth. Apgar scores in the first and fifth minute were better in VBAC, and later natural delivery than repeat C-section. Resuscitation at birth demonstrated better results for natural delivery and then VBAC than repeat C-section. Conclusion: Utilizing VBAC and natural delivery have better maternal and fetal outcomes compared to C-section, along with being more satisfactory and safer. © 2023, Farname Inc. All rights reserved.
