C-section Sentence Examples

  • A cesarean section, also called a c-section, is a surgical procedure in which an incision is made through a woman's abdomen and uterus to deliver her baby.

  • The procedure is performed in the United States on nearly one in every four women resulting in more than 900,000 babies each year being delivered by c-section.

  • The procedure is often used in women who have had a previous c-section, but if the incision on the uterus is not vertical, the woman can try a vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC).

  • The use of continuous monitoring does result in a higher c-section rate partly because the tracing can be misinterpreted or because the mother usually requires more interventions when she cannot be mobile.

  • Spinal anesthesia operates on the same principle as epidural anesthesia and is used primarily in cases of c-section delivery.
