چکیده
In 1980 the US National Institutes of Health [3] (NIH) and the US National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) released a report titled, ?National Institutes of Health Consensus Development Conference Statement September 22?24, 1980.? The report lists recommendations for birth delivery through cesarean sections, a surgical procedure used to deliver the fetus [4] via the pregnant woman?s abdomen. The recommendations arose from the 1980 Consensus Development Conference on Cesarean Childbirth in Bethesda, Maryland. Medical professionals, consumers, and biomedical research scientists attended the conference, and the NIH?s taskforce on the subject helped facilitate discussions regarding the safety of cesarean sections. The NIH taskforce concluded that cesarean section rates can be decreased and possibly reversed in addition to improving maternal and fetal outcomes and provided recommendations for future research on cesarean sections.
