VBAC Queries

The request was partially successful.

Dear Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust,

Dear Sir/Madam,

In order for me to further my research into my vbac (vaginal births after caesarean) options please,

1.could you provide a copy of your policy/guidelines pertaining to the management of vaginal births after caesarean?

2.Please can you also supply a list of any exclusions/restrictions you would apply to a vbac birth? I.e. would you accommodate home births, water births, access to you midwifery led units or birth centres?

3.Could you also please advise on how these practice points alter (if at all) should the vbac follow multiple caesareans?

4.Could you also provide your most up to date vbac success rate statistics (2011 and 2012)?

5.Your most recent statistics (2011 and 2012) relating to numbers of births, how many of these were unassisted normal births, how many were instrumental deliveries, how many were caesareans?

6.The most recent statistics (2011 and 2012) relating to how many of the caesareans were elective and how many were emergencies.

7.If available statistics (2011 and 2012) relating to how many planned vaginal births after previous caesarean resulted in normal birth and how many in repeat caesarean.

Thank you in advance for your time. As this is a time sensitive request, for obvious reasons, I look forward to your timely response.
