Emergency delivery in centers of excellence did not increase blood loss, transfusion rates or maternal morbidity. The single greatest risk factor for emergency delivery was antenatal hemorrhage. When adequate expertise and resources are available, to defer delivery in women with no significant antenatal bleeding and no risk factors for pre-term birth until >36+0 weeks can be considered to improve fetal outcomes. Further studies are needed to investigate this fully.
