A different classification is used for pre labour CS and those carried out after either spontaneous or induced labour. A great deal of effort is needed to ensure that the classification is correctly applied and the data validated and quality controlled. In these tables although the quality is good there remain discrepancies which we continue to seek to improve. The classification used for indications is one that the hospital has developed and used for 15 years and is now being used internationally. NMH Annual Rep t | 2020
