[Analysis of indications for cesarean sections in the Obstetric-gynecologic Ward of the provincial hospital in Ciechanow in the years 1986-1994]

The authors have made attempts to show analysis of cesarean section' indications in the Obstetric-Gynecological Ward of the provincial hospital in Ciechanów within the years 1986-1994. There have been 18,362 deliveries during this period of time, 2769 (15.1%) of which have been finished by c.s. We have made our tables and estimations basing mainly on the operation records and the records of labor. The analyses have revealed the increase of the c.s. number because of gestosis in multiple gestations and non-obstetric indications in our ward. The greatest group in this period of time were parturients with one or more c.s. in history. To diminish the number of this parturients could be possible when one would better analyse the indications to the first c.s., and making the attempt of a vaginal delivery in multigravidas after c.s. while the operation theater is standby.
