Pak J Med Health Sci Jan ;13(1):354-5.

Aim: To determine the frequency of uterine rupture after one successful vaginal birth after caesarean section. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from June-2018 to Jan-2019. A total of 120 patients with singleton pregnancies of age 16-45 Years admitted for 2nd Vagina Birth after C-Section (VBAC) having gestational age ≥ 28 weeks were included in this analysis. Patients were evaluated by detailed history and clinical examination. Data in shape of parity, gestational age and BMI was taken and information was recorded on specially designed proforma. Results: Mean age of study patients was 29.88+5.34 years. Mean body mass index (BMI) of study patients was 25.17+4.88 kg/m2. Mean gestational age at the time of delivery was 39.01+/-2.54 weeks. There were 63 (52.5%) pregnant females having parity status 2, 41 (34.17%) were having parity status 3 and only 16 (13.3%) females were having parity status 4. Uterine rupture after vaginal birth occurred in 1 (0.83%) patients. Conclusion: The frequency of uterine rupture in patients after one successful vaginal birth after caesarean section is 0.83%.
