Two physicians can study the same monitor and one will say the patient needs a cesarean section, and other will disagree. It is a problem that just won't go away," he said. According to Dr. Lamoreaux, the major indications for cesarean section include dystocia (the fetus is too large to be delivered vaginally), failure to progress during labor, breech presentation, fetal distress, previous cesarean delivery, and a variety of other maternal andor Much national attention has recently been drawn to the increasing number of cesarean section births in the United States. The national average has increased from 5.5 percent in 1970, to 24.4 percent in 1987. Currently, one in four deliveries are by cesarean section. The dramatic increase in the number of cesarean sections performed has been attributed to a variety of issues. The reasons include an increase in the number of fetal problems believed to be better managed by cesarean delivery, an increase in legal suits against physicians who deliver babies, as well as a ten--4 dency to perform repeat cesarean Maternal and fetal monitoring has also played a sensitive role in the cesarean section issue. Many physicians attribute the increase in the rate to the advanced monitoring equipment now being used. Dr. James Lamoreaux, an American Fork physician who specializes in ObstetricsGynecology, contends that the monitoring is not necessarily the issue. time with their patients and perform cesarean sections when necessary. "We want the very best for both the mother and the baby," says Lamoreaux. "We are careful to evaluate each patient-.- if there is any threat to the mother or baby, we will perform a cesarean section." At American Fork Hospital, the Women's Center, reports a 1989 cesarean section rate of 14.6 percent; much lower than the national average. Eloise Anderson, Director of the Women's Center at American Fork Hospital makes observations regarding the difference in the cesarean section rate. "Our physicians are very careful in evaluating the needs of each patient," she said. "They are more willing to work with patients and provide them every opportunity to deliver vaginally. Because of the size of our hospital, we are able to provide more individualized care," said Anderson. The increasing number of legal For the major risks. While many hospitals are proposing strategies to reduce the cesarean section rate, American Fork Hospital is taking a practical approach when dealing with the cesarean section issue. American available in Utah County Come home to Golden Corral! The WIC Program issues food vouchers to eligible women, infants and children at no cost. These vouchers can be used at any participating grocery store to obtain the WIC supplemental foods (which include eggs, cereal, juice, milk, cheese and infant formulas). "WIC has received federal funding through the next five years," Radford explained, "but not enough to continue serving the numbers of people we have been able to help in "Utah County WIC is still in business." In light of the recent media attention nationally and locally about the WIC Program funding crisis, Doreen Radford, Utah County WIC Director, wants to make her point clear.

BOOt Filler Paper As cited earlier, one of the major reasons for the increase in the cesarean section rate is the tendency to perform a repeat cesarean section on patients who had a previous cesarean section. However, much attention in this area has lead to an increase in vaginal births after cesarean (VBACs) "Each year we seen an increasing number of VBACs in the Women's Center," said Anderson. According to Lamoreaux, about 70 percent of previous cesarean patients can deliver vaginally.In the ' future, it is estimated that the increase in VBACs will have a significant effect on the decrease in the cesarean section rate. suits for physicians delivering babies 70 count 1.99 problem.
