The role of maternal body mass index in outcomes of vaginal births after cesarean
Article Abstract:
The association between maternal body mass index and obstetrical outcome in patients with a prior cesarean undergoing a trial of labor versus elective repeat cesarean is evaluated. Results suggest that maternal body mass index is an independent factor associated with a lower rate of successful vaginal birth after cesarean.
