A Caesarean section, popularly known as C-section, is a surgical procedure employed by obstetric doctors when vaginal birth can pose risks to the mother or baby. It involves an incision in the mother's abdomen and uterus to deliver the baby. This method is often necessitated by various medical conditions such as stalled labour, foetal distress, abnormal foetal position, multiple pregnancies, placenta previa, or umbilical cord prolapse.
In Apollo Hospitals, Delhi, C-sections are conducted by some of the best caesarean section doctors who bring a wealth of experience and expertise to each operation. Apollo Hospital's extensive medical infrastructure and highly skilled professionals ensure that you will be in safe hands throughout the process.
The need for a C-section can arise due to a variety of conditions. Here are some:
1. Stalled Labour: This occurs when contractions fail to open the cervix enough for the baby to move into the vagina for delivery.
2. Foetal Distress: Any sign of distress from the baby such as decreased movement or an abnormal heart rate may warrant a C-section.
3. Abnormal Foetal Position: If the baby is not in a head-down position close to the due date, a C-section might be advised.
4. Multiple Pregnancy: In cases of twins or more, delivering through a C-section may be safer.
5. Placenta Previa: This happens when the placenta covers the cervix partially or entirely.
6. Umbilical Cord Prolapse: In some cases, the umbilical cord can slip through the cervix before the baby, potentially causing a dangerous situation.
At Apollo Hospitals in Delhi, C-sections are performed following a meticulously planned and executed protocol. Here are the typical steps:
1. Preoperative Preparations: This involves showering with antiseptic soap, removing pubic hair with a trimmer, cleaning the abdomen, fitting a catheter and placing IV lines.
2. Anaesthesia Administration: One of three types of anaesthesia is given: regional anaesthesia, general anaesthesia, or spinal or epidural block.
3. Making the Incision: An incision is made above the pubic hairline to gain access to the uterus.
4. Delivery of the Baby: The baby is removed from the uterus through this incision.
5. Closure of the Incision: The incisions are closed and the procedure concludes.
When considering a C-section, opting for an expert surgeon significantly increases your chances of a safe procedure and speedy recovery.
