Dear Newham University Hospital NHS Trust,

year since 2007
2-No. of complications and deaths arising from planned caesarean
sections undertaken by the hospital for each year.
3-No. of cases of mother or child being re-admitted to hospital

4-No. of cases (not due to patient error/choice) where planned
caesarean sections were not carried out, and the reasons.
5-Caesarean section patient satisfaction results for each year

I would be pleased if you could provide your policies and
procedures in relation to elective caesarean sections, both where
there is medical need, and where there is not.

Dear Jeni Deborah A Mwebaze,
Please respond to point 2 in full. ALL other hospitals have been
able to do so, so i do not believe you are unable to do so

Dear Mr Croeser,
Thank you for your email below.
I have contacted the Trust's Business Intelligence Team again and they
advise that, they are not able to answer the question in the manner it is
asked.
This is because while they can pull out information on all complications,
they are not able to confirm which ones are purely a result of a planned
C-section. Please rephrase the question or be specific about the
complications you are interested in.
In terms of "deaths arising from planned caesarean sections undertaken by
the hospital for each year.” The number is Zero.
I hope this is helpful.
Kind regards,
Jeni Deborah A Mwebaze
Information Governance Facilitator.
