As an obstetrician working on the front line, I have also noticed an abnormal increase in the number of caesarean sections in recent years. The reason for this is that there are two main factors, technical and social. The technical factor is that there is a lack of technical support in China that can help doctors visualize the status of the fetus’ uterine position. In foreign countries, obstetricians can continuously monitor fetal oxygen saturation, blood gases, etc. Through these indications, doctors can easily understand the condition of the fetus in the mother’s uterus until birth. At present, there is only fetal heart monitoring in China, and doctors do not know enough about the condition of the fetus in the womb. It is not practical to introduce foreign fetal monitoring technology into the country because of the high cost of such monitoring technology. To do continuous oxygen saturation monitoring of a fetus, just a probe is a few hundred yuan, and Beijing’s tertiary hospitals maternity insurance natural childbirth medical expenses fixed payment standard is only 1,900 yuan to 2,000 yuan, the high cost of monitoring can only be borne by the pregnant woman, and a considerable portion of pregnant women do not have such economic conditions. Factors at the technical level are a major contributing factor to the surge in caesarean sections. From the social level, although the State has partially liberalized the one-child birth policy, most families still prefer to have only one child. As a result, the degree of expectation and concern of the whole family for the child to be born can be imagined. For the mothers and their families who are eager to see the birth of a new life inside and outside the maternity ward, the anxiety and waiting caused by the labor that can easily take more than ten hours is undoubtedly a kind of torment, and the cesarean section can make this kind of waiting and anxiety to be terminated in a very short period of time. From the hospital’s point of view, there are certain unpredictable risks associated with natural delivery, such as anterior vascularization, prolapse of the umbilical cord, excessive squeezing, twisting, and knotting of the umbilical cord in the uterus, which cannot be detected in advance with modern technology. Once these accidents occur during labor and delivery, resulting in the death of the baby, the doctor, the hospital and the mother’s family will be embroiled in an unresolvable medical dispute. This outcome is naturally something no one wants to see. If a woman has an accident during natural delivery, she may have to undergo a Caesarean section instead. To carry out such an emergency operation, the general international regulations stipulate that the duration of intrauterine distress must be limited to 30 minutes, but at present, most of the hospitals are not equipped to carry out this kind of emergency operation on the spot within 30 minutes, and in some hospitals, the labor and delivery room and the operation room are not on the same floor at all, and it will take a lot of time for transferring and carrying the patient, and there will also be an anesthesia team to carry out the surgery. It takes a lot of time to transfer and move the patient, and there is also time for anesthesia to be administered. If the umbilical cord prolapse occurs in a pregnant woman, this emergency, as long as the fetus continues to be severely deprived of oxygen for more than four minutes, it will lead to permanent damage to brain cells.
