ABSTRACT Background: Caesarean section emerged as a lifesaving surgery in situations where vaginal delivery could put the mother and fetus at risk. Over the years global rise in caesarean delivery rate has been alarming and may be attributed to changes in medical practice and societal expectations, especially in urban areas and developing countries. Rising caesarean rate is worrisome as it increases maternal morbidity, exposes the mother to future obstetric risks, besides increasing financial burden on the health care system. Caesarean audits could be an effective tool to analyse, understand and propose solutions to reduce caesarean rates. Hence, this retrospective study was conducted to audit caesarean sections done over a period of 5 years (2011 to 2015) in a single unit of a tertiary care private hospital in North India. Methods: The case records of all caesarean deliveries from January 2011 to December 2015 were analysed retrospectively for demographic profile, clinical parameters and recorded indication of caesarean section on the basis of Robson’s classification. Results: The caesarean section rate in the study was 61.8%. According to Robson’s 10 system classification, Group 2, 5 and 10 were the largest contributors. The commonest indication was previous LSCS (18.7%) followed closely by fetal distress (15.4%) and prolonged labor/failed induction (13.3%). Maternal request contributed 10.6% of the Caesarean deliveries. Conclusions: The caesarean section rate in our study is way higher than the national average. We need to re-duce caesareans in primigravidae and consider VBAC where appropriate. Use of Electronic fetal monitoring during labor needs to be optimized. Appropriate use of oxytocics, proper monitoring and using robust criterion to infer non progress of labor are important. Appropriate counselling and assured pain management during labor may help reduce caesareans on maternal request. Keywords: Caesarean section, Caesarean audit, Robson’s classification, Tertiary hospital INTRODUCTION third world countries is alarming. There is a need to audit the indications in order to find reasons for uncalled for Caesarean section (Cs) is a commonly performed surgical caesarean deliveries and devise new strategies to curb the procedure aimed to reduce maternal and perinatal trend. morbidity- mortality.

An alarming rate of hospital acquired infections (HAI) in Indian hospitals has highlighted the importance of CSSD. Despite all measures and advancements in technology, hospital acquired infections remain a challenge in healthcare scenario today. The hospitals are required to establish an adequate CSSD set-up and adopt strict quality control processes with latest technology to mitigate hospital acquired infections. Hence the concept of infection control by FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE who said "No Stronger Condemnation of any hospital or ward could be pronounced than the simple fact that zymotic disease has originated in it or that such disease attack other patients than those brought-in with '' stands true for generations of healthcare to come.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics Sughra Shafi Medical Complex affiliated with Sahara Medical College, Narowal, from 1st January to 30th June 2018. In this study, 265 pregnant women of ages 20 years to 40 years were randomly selected. After taking informed consent from all pregnant women, detailed evaluation of all patients was done by thorough history examination and investigations. Literacy level, socio-economic status, patient’s weight, height and parity were also noted. Fetal weight at 37-42 weeks of gestation was estimated by using ultrasound and compared it to post delivery birth weight. Results: Out of all 265 patients, 144(54.33%) patient’s ages were between 20 to 30 years, 90(33.96%) patients were between 30 to 35 years and rest 31(11.70%) had ages greater than 35 years. Patient’s weight was in range between 50kg to 90 kg. Minimum fetal weight was observed as 2.30kg while maximum was 4.60kg at 37-42 weeks gestation.
