Caesarean sections, indications and outcomes: a cross-sectional study using the Robson classification in a tertiary hospital in Sierra Leone.

Our data reveals a notably high CS rate, particularly among low-risk groups according to the Robson classification. Interpretation must consider PCMH as a referral hospital within an extremely low-resourced healthcare system, centralising all the complicated deliveries from a vast catchment area. Further research is required to assess the impact of referred obstetrical complications on the CS rate and the feasibility of implementing measures to improve the management of women with dystocia and previous CS.
