Abstract

The cesarean section surgical procedure is historically considered a very important advance in reducing the risk of maternal and perinatal mortality1.
It is the most frequently performed intervention at the specialty level, which entails inherent surgical and anesthetic risks2,3.
In 2015, the incidence in Ecuador of termination of pregnancy by cesarean section is 29,3% in the public sector, 49,9% in Social Security and 69,9% in private clinics4. For the World Health Organization
(WHO) in the same year, it states that “In no region of the world is the incidence of cesarean section higher than 10-15% justified” 5.
The variability of the indication for cesarean section makes it necessary to create guidelines and protocols, in order to unify medical criteria, according to the best scientific evidence available.
