Cesarean Section

"Some cesareans are planned cesarean section maybe because they had so many cesareans before or they were told to have a cesarean for some reason these are planned or also called elective cesarian section. So the other types or the most common types of cesareans that we do are an emergency cesareans means we don't plan that cesarian we go thinking that women will have a normal delivery something or other changes and then the cesarean will become necessary for them. So they are called emergency cesarian sections so we have so many categories of cesarian sections also. Depending on how soon we have to do a cesarian we have categories like category one is the the cesarean is must to save the life of mother or the baby and it is so emergency that you have to have the baby out within 20 minutes. These are called category one cesareans that is an extreme emergency and we do drills to make sure that you know it can happen and the whole team is ready to do so. This is only when you think if the previous cesarean section is trying for a normal delivery and we think that car has ruptured then the baby can die very quickly. So this is only many times that we think minutes matter we do this category of cesareans. Sometimes a cord is a cord around the baby can come down the position of the baby is not right it's not head down it's across then the chances of this cord coming down with water break is high. So these are the times that we have to do in a very very emergency situation we call it as category 1. What is Category 2? When cesarean is necessary but it is not an emergency that we have to do in you know 10 - 20 minutes but it has to be done within that hour when we think baby is a little distressed but not so much that we have like you know the baby's heartbeat is down and not picking up. But baby's heartbeat is going down each time it's not correcting we think there is a problem with the baby. So we need to be a little hening things but not to an extent that you know everything is dropped down without consent we are going in wheeling straight to theater we call it. So usually we just done within 1 to 2 hours of decision these are category two what are category three cesarians which is it has to be done but to. So the time of women and the team we can plan like see we are planned to do aan but you come in an emergency with pains. So it has to be done but it is not an emergency baby is fine mother is fine but we have to do in that day. So around 6 hours or 8 hours we can plan based on various other things when you have had food to eat, you can wait till you are safe to have anesthesia and then get this done, we call it as category three. Category four is when you plan a cesarean you give a date you come and vision then we call it as category four. So this is categories of cesarean and now we have seen planned and unplanned emergency and elective cesarean. These are types of cesarean sections"
