A sideways, or transverse, incision in the lower part of the uterus forms a strong scar with
a low risk of rupture in future pregnancies.
The risk of uterine rupture appears to be inversely related to the length of time between deliveries (the longer the interval between deliveries,
the lower the risk of rupture).
«Vacuum - based muscles have
a lower risk of rupture, failure, and damage, and they don't expand when they're operating, so you can integrate them into closer - fitting robots on the human body.»

If you've had one c - section with the typical
low - transverse uterine incision and are considered a good candidate for VBAC, most studies estimate the
risk of rupture during labor to be less than one percent.
Examples I personally can document: a plague
of deadly bacteria in the newborn nursery killing 3 previously healthy newborns, exploding the fetal lungs with too forceful dose
of oxygen after birth by inexperienced doctor, crushing the skull during forceps extraction, overdose
of adrenalin to newborn by a nurse, slow paging or slow response to call to resuscitate newborn, exploding the uterus (uterine
rupture) and / or placental abruption as a result
of high IV dose
of oxytocin in labor in a
low risk women.
Deaths in
low risk pregnancy as a result
of hospital routine: Inductions with prostaglandin and Pitocin, epidurals,
rupturing membranes, forceps and anesthesia have been documented to cause rare but serious complications including death or near death
of the fetus.
These deaths are completely preventable by restricting the frequent use
of hospital interventions that cause them: inductions and augmentations (currently 50 %
of low risk births), forceps & vacuum (5 %
of low risk births),
rupturing membranes (85 %
of low risk births), epidurals (50 %
of low risk births), frequent vaginal exams (98 %
of low risk births), general anesthesia at cesareans (5 %
of low risk births).

risk of uterine
rupture is very
low for vbac1.
As discussed below, the
risk of uterine
rupture is higher in women with other types
of hysterotomies, with the exception
of low vertical incision (a vertical incision performed in the
lower uterine segment).
In addition, there has not been consistent evidence
of an increased
risk of uterine
rupture or maternal or perinatal morbidity associated with TOLAC in the presence
of a prior
low - vertical scar.
They offer the statistics
of uterine
rupture with two previous cesareans as 1.36 %, and ultimately state that provided the woman is fully informed
of the increased
risk and has undergone an individual
risk assessment with her provider, then planned VBAC may be supported in women with two or more previous
lower segment cesarean deliveries (NICE, 2015).
According to the American College
of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), if you had a previous cesarean with a
low transverse incision, the
risk of uterine
rupture in a vaginal delivery is.2 to 1.5 %, which is approximately 1 chance in 5001.
The
risk of uterine
rupture with a previous
low transverse (sideways) cesarean delivery is less than 1percent.
Tissue samples from arteries showed that plaques from people with two C versions had a lot less COX - 2 protein than those from volunteers carrying two G versions, supporting the idea that less COX - 2 translates to less inflammation and
lower rupture risk, the team reports in the 12 May Journal
of the American Medical Association.
