CHOOSING THE HOSPITAL THAT IS RIGHT FOR YOU & HOW TO PRE-REGISTER FOR CHILDBIRTH Often your insurance will dictate the hospital where you must deliver your baby. Only two hospitals in Reno have maternity and childbirth services, Renown Regional Medical Center and Saint Mary’s Regional Medical Center. Renown South Meadows and Northern Nevada Medical Center do not have a labor and delivery departments and neither hospital has obstetricians on call. Please do not go to South Meadows or Northern Nevada FOR ANY REASON DURING YOUR PREGNANCY. We ask that you have picked your hospital by 24 weeks gestation. It is at this time that we will begin sending copies of your prenatal record to the specific hospital. Please do not go back and forth between hospitals as only one hospital will have your prenatal record and to switch between the two may cause a delay in your care. We enjoy working at both hospitals and truly do not have a preference.

  • Counseling Women on Modes of Birth After Cesarean Accepted: Date Updated: 10/18/2018 Final
    Boston Medical Center Maternity Care Guideline Guideline: Counseling Women on Modes of Birth After Cesarean Accepted: Date Updated: 10/18/2018 Final Purpose To provide clinicians with evidence based information to make decisions in partnership with women whether or not to plan for labor after prior cesarean in the outpatient setting. Definition Labor after Cesarean (LAC): Labor in a woman who has had a previous cesarean. (Prior term used was TOLAC - Trial of Labor after Cesarean). Elective Repeat Cesarean Birth (ERCB): Extraction of the fetus(es) through an abdominal incision in a woman who had a cesarean birth in a previous pregnancy. This may be planned or unplanned. Vaginal Birth after Cesarean (VBAC): Vaginal birth by a woman with a history of a previous cesarean (successful LAC). Introduction In 2016 the cesarean rate for the United States (U.S.) was 31.9%, more than double the rate recommended by World Health Organization (WHO) to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality.2 Since the release of the National Institute of Health’s 2010 statement on Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC), emphasizing the importance VBAC as an option for women, rates of Labor After Cesarean (LAC) have slowly started to rise, increasing from 8.4% in 2009 to 11.9% in 2015. Most women with one or two previous low-transverse cesareans are considered reasonable candidates for LAC and should be supported in shared decision making about their birth options. BMC Statistics: At Boston Medical Center (BMC) in 2017, cesarean birth rate was 31%. Thirty- nine percent of women with prior cesarean delivery attempted LAC, of which 65% were successful.

    Managing the Risk of Uterine Rupture During a Trial of Labor After Cesarean Section By NORCAL Mutual Insurance Company Introduction While a successful vaginal birth after cesarean section (VBAC) is associated with less morbidity and mortality than repeat cesarean section (C-section), an unsuccessful VBAC is associated with a small but significant risk of uterine rupture that can result in death or serious injury to both the mother and the infant.1 When a trial of labor after C-section (TOLAC) ends in uterine rupture, emergency C-section, and the delivery of an infant with brain injuries, there is a good chance that the child’s This article originally appeared in the parents will file a lawsuit, or at least September 2011 issue of Claims Rx.

  • Clinical Practice Guideline: Planning for Labor and Vaginal Birth After Cesarean
    Clinical Practice Guideline: Planning for Labor and Vaginal Birth After Cesarean These recommendations are provided only as assistance for physicians making clinical decisions regarding the care of their patients. As such, they cannot substitute for the individual judgment brought to each clinical situation by the patient’s family physician. As with all clinical reference resources, they reflect the best understanding of the science of medicine at the time of publication, but they should be used with the clear understanding that continued research may result in new knowledge and recommendations. American Academy of Family Physicians AAFP Board Approved May 2014 American Academy of Family Physicians | Clinical Practice Guideline: Planning for Labor and Vaginal Birth After Cesarean | page 1 ABSTRACT. Purpose. Cesarean deliveries are a common surgical procedure in the United States, accounting for one in three U.S. births. The primary purpose of this guideline is to provide clinicians with evidence to guide planning for labor and vaginal birth after cesarean (LAC/VBAC). Methods. A multidisciplinary guideline development group (GDG) representing family medicine, epidemiology, obstetrics, midwifery, and consumer advocacy used a recent high quality systematic review by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) as the primary evidence source and updated the AHRQ systematic review to include research published through September 2012. The GDG conducted a systematic review for an additional key question on facilities and resources needed for LAC/VBAC. The GDG developed recommendations using a modified Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. Results. The panel recommended that an individualized assessment of risks and benefits be discussed with pregnant women with a history of one or more prior cesarean births who are deciding between a planned LAC/VBAC and a repeat cesarean birth.

    Luo et al. BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth (2021) 21:89 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12884-021-03559-1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Obstetricians’ perspectives on trial of labor after cesarean (TOLAC) under the two-child policy in China: a cross-sectional study Zhong-chen Luo1, Xu Liu2, Anni Wang3, Jian-qiong Li4, Ze-hong Zheng5, Sun Guiyu6, Ting Lou6, Jin Pang6 and Xiao-ling Bai7,6* Abstract Background: As the birth policy has been adjusted from one-child-one-couple to universal two-child-one-couple in China, there is an increasing number of women undergoing a second pregnancy after a previous cesarean section (CS). Undertaking an elective repeat CS (ERCS) has been taken for granted and has thus become a major contributor to the increasing CS rate in China. Promoting trial of labor after CS (TOLAC) can reduce the CS rate without compromising delivery outcomes. This study aimed to investigate Chinese obstetricians’ perspectives regarding TOLAC, and the factors associated with their decision-making regarding recommending TOLAC to pregnant women with a history of CS under the two-child policy. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was carried out between May and July 2018. Binary logistic regression was used to determine the factors associated with the obstetricians’ intention to recommend TOLAC to pregnant women with a history of CS. The independent variables included sociodemographic factors and perceptions regarding TOLAC (selection criteria for TOLAC, basis underlying the selection criteria for TOLAC, and perceived challenges regarding promoting TOLAC). Results: A total of 426 obstetricians were surveyed, with a response rate of ≥83%.

Growing rates of cesar- ean sections worldwide arise problems for subsequent birth. The aim of this study was to compare safety of vaginal birth after two cesarean sections with repeat third cesarean section to help healthcare providers and patients make well informed decisions about mode of subsequent delivery. Material and methods: This was a retrospective cohort study conducted in a tertiary reference hospital. Database of all deliveries (2010–2017) after two previous cesarean sections was created from electronic and paper medical records. Preterm deliveries, abnormal karyotype and neonates with congenital anomalies were excluded from the study. The final analysis included 412 cases for maternal outcome analysis and 406 cases for neonatal outcome analysis. Results: Trial of labor after two cesareans in comparison to repeat cesarean section increases the risk of hemorrhage (OR: 10.84) and unfavorable composite maternal outcome (OR: 2.58). Failed trial of labor increases this risk of hemorrhage (OR: 15.27) and unfavorable composite maternal outcome (OR: 4.59) even further. There were no significant differences in neo- natal outcomes.
