The National Institute for Clinical Excellence have just
produced their
new draft guidelines - see
http://www.nice.org.uk/pdf/CS_NICEguideline_1stconsultation.pdf
NICE
is the statutory UK body who review clinical practices, medicines
etc. for
the National Health Service.
Have looked at it briefly. There are
some intresting recommendations -
like women should be offered a home
birth as it reduces the incidence of
CS, that active managment of labour,
use of oxytocics and amniotomy
should not form part of routine care, and
there is a long list of the
risks of sections, in nice plain english, and
which contradict some
misconceptions e.g. women with a section are more
likely to have bladder
and urinary tract injuries.
