Intrapartum risks under retarded abdominal delivery

In the 21 century Caesarean section is the most common serious operation performed on women all over the world. This is explained by shifting priorities from classical to perinatal obstetrics, surgical indications for Caesarean section, and, thus, expansion in its number. Caesarean section in high-risk pregnancy reduces perinatal and maternal mortality, but it is associated with a higher risk of complications [1, 2]. The aim of the study is to estimate the influence of intrapartum risk factors on the outcome in patients with abdominal delivery in full cervical dilatation. Results. Delivery outcomes are directly related to perinatal risk score and intrapartum augmentation. During delivery intrapartum augmentation shifted perinatal risks from low and medium (26.8 %) to high, which is considered to be the most unfavourable both for maternal and fetal outcomes.
