Women should be made aware of the risks of 'nicking' the uterus during a curette and the impact that can have on future births. One of the other main causes of uterine rupture during labour is a uterus that has been damaged in the past; OTHER than a cs. Out of interest....does the system treat a woman with a previous curette as a possible rupture like they do vbacs? Afterall, who can tell if a 'nick' has occurred anyway? Probably should refrain from pointing those things out as it could be reasons enough to insist all women with curette history to have a cs for all future births. Sorry...feeling a little pissed at the vbac crap at the moment.
