What are the Risks of an Emergency Cesarean Section?
Like any surgical procedure, an emergency C-section carries certain risks. These can include:
- Infection: The risk of infection is higher in an emergency C-section compared to a planned one. - Blood loss: There can be significant blood loss during the procedure. - Anesthesia complications: Reactions to anesthesia can occur, although they are rare. - Injury to baby: There is a small risk of accidental injury to the baby during the surgery.
