ABSTRACT

The high Romanian Cesarean delivery rates have led to an increase in a women's desire to achieve vaginal birth after Cesarean delivery (VBAC), but certain impediments make this process difficult. We retrospectively evaluated the VBAC cases in a tertiary maternity hospital from Romania, and assessed the Romanian women's opinion about VBAC using a questionnaire that was distributed to three specific Facebook groups. We evaluated 63 patients who achieved VBAC between January 2014 and August 2020. In addition, an online survey with 41 open and closed questions assessed the participants' opinion regarding VBAC in Romania. The results are summarized and discussed. The results revealed that VBAC rates were under 1%. The main observed complications that followed VBAC were postpartum hemorrhage (15.8%), and uterine atony (7.93%), while the most frequent ty pes of lesions encountered after VBAC were cervical tear (12.6%), followed by labial fissure (9.5%) and vaginal tear (7.9%). The patient's confidence in the health care system is low, and many women decide to try TOLAC at home. In conclusion, VBAC is an important topic in the context of high Romanian Cesarean rates, and the decision factors must provide consistent strategies that promote this mode of delivery.
