Caesarean section (in conditions of limited resources)

In areas with limited resources, caesarean section is still the most common surgical procedure.

However, even with strict adherence to surgical indications (caesarean sections for convenience are excluded), the maternal morbidity and mortality rate remains high.

The objective of this manual is to reduce the perinatal and infant morbidity and mortality rate in Caesarean section, by presenting a rigorous anaesthetic and surgical practice of Caesarean section adapted to conditions with limited resources.
