Planned (elective) caesarean section research hub

Standardisation, acceptability and outcomes of elective (planned) caesarean births where the baby's head is delivered first, and the baby is not fully delivered until after they have taken their first cry or 2 minutes have passed (whichever is sooner)

This study looks at a new way to do planned C-sections where the baby's head is delivered first, then there's a short wait before the rest of the baby is born. This might help babies breathe easier after birth by giving them time to clear fluid from their lungs.
