Abstract

We conducted a retrospective study was conducted in the Centre Hospital Maternity of health Reproductive Orangers (HMHRO) including all births between the 1st January 1, 2017 to July 31, 2017 and from the 1st January 2018 to December 31, 2018 to analyze the cesarean section (CS) rate using the different groups of the Robson classification in a Morocco maternity hospital. The overall CS rate was 26,4%, mainly related to group 5 (multiparous with previous CS) and group 2 (nulliparous women induced or who had CS before labor). The Robson classification system appears as a simple tool for monitoring CS rates. The main strategies for reducing CS rates will be through better selection of women for VBAC (vaginal birth after caesarean) and limitation of induction of labor, especially in nulliparous women.
