Cesarean section or C-section, is the surgical delivery of a baby through a cut made in the mother’s abdomen and uterus. Healthcare providers perform this procedure when they believe it is safer for the mother, the baby, or both.
Reduction in maternal mortality observed in high-income countries has been achieved by providing access to skilled care during pregnancy and childbirth and by the provision of safe interventions such as assisted vaginal delivery and C-section.
