[Perinatal infant mortality and cesarean section]. 1993

I Popov, and G Gorchev, and A Velkova

The authors looking for a connection between perinatal mortality (PM) and caesarean delivery (CD). A 15-year period has been analysed with 66,451 births, 943 PM cases and 3145 CD cases. The total PM and PM after CD show a tendency towards becoming equal towards the end of the investigated period. The authors consider that the margin of 10/1000 can not be influenced by the rate of the operation growing higher. PM after CD is mainly influenced by biological factors, doctor's qualifications, the timely stated reasons for the operation and the postoperative treatment and care for the baby. A conclusion has been drawn for the multiple factor caused of PM after CD.
