2.6 RECOMMENDATION
1. To reduce CS rates we should reduce the primary section rates and Obstetricians must be involved in decisions in deciding upon CS.
2. It is probably timely now to consider whether cases requiring CS should be seen by obstetricians before this major decision is taken. This would also provide
guidance and teaching to MOs. 3. CS audits should be performed in all hospitals.
4. More research is required to conclude if VBAC was considered or attempted in the group of patients with a previous CS.
