Cesarean sections initially showed no impact on perinatal mortality but later trends suggest improved outcomes. Rising cesarean rates correlated with decreasing perinatal mortality, especially in later periods.

Area of Science:

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Perinatology
  • Public Health

Context:

  • Analysis of 74,199 deliveries from 1980-1992 at Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital.
  • Cesarean section rates increased significantly from 1985 onwards.
  • Perinatal mortality rate (PMR) showed a decreasing trend starting in 1983.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the impact of cesarean section on reducing perinatal mortality.
  • To analyze trends in cesarean section rates and PMR over a 13-year period.
  • To compare perinatal and neonatal mortality rates between cesarean and vaginal deliveries.

Summary:

  • Cesarean section rates steadily increased throughout the study period.
  • Perinatal mortality rates generally decreased, with notable improvements in the third period (1989-1992).

  • Mortality rates varied between delivery groups, with cesarean sections showing higher rates in the second period and lower rates in the third.

    • Impact:

    • Cesarean delivery outcomes have evolved, with later periods showing reduced perinatal and neonatal mortality compared to vaginal births.
    • Congenital abnormalities and respiratory diseases were primary causes of neonatal death in cesarean births.
    • Increased rates of prematurity and low birth weight in the cesarean group during the second period contributed to higher mortality.
