- In 2011, the cesarean birth rate in
Canada reached 27.1%, 29% in Ontario and 30.7% in British Columbia.
- Increasingly, women are faced
with the choice to plan a vaginal
- r cesarean birth after a previous
cesarean birth.
- SOGC Guidelines recommend that
planned vaginal birth be offered to women with one previous transverse low-segment cesarean.

women with a previous cesarean birth, the rate of repeat cesarean birth was 81.7% in Canada.

- 87.1% of women in our sample
had only one previous cesarean birth.
- The direction and size of
differences for each outcome group according to planned mode of delivery was similar to those for the entire sample.
SLIDE 31
The association between
planned mode of delivery and adverse outcomes after 1-2 previous cesarean births may be modified by history of prior vaginal birth.
SLIDE 32
Retrospective data. Observational study design. Use of composite outcomes. Smaller sample size of women
with a prior vaginal delivery.
No data on inter-pregnancy
interval or ethnicity.
SLIDE 33
- Overall, risks for adverse
- utcomes after 1-2 previous
cesarean births are reduced among women with a prior vaginal birth compared to without a prior vaginal birth.
- Absolute differences between
planned vaginal birth compared with planned cesarean birth remain small.
- Our data offer women and their
caregivers the opportunity to consider risk profiles separately for women who have and have not had a prior vaginal delivery.
