Abstract

Background: More recent studies indicated that ELECTIVE CESAREAN section has negative effects on the physiologic responses of newborn, increases the risk of resuscitation need and respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), and prolongs hospital stay. Previous data and primary evaluations indicated that the cesarean rate in Malayer was very higher than the province’s mean. So, it was necessary to carry out a TRAINING intervention to decrease cesarean rate in this city. Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 453 healthcare workers participated. These individuals were taught and their knowledge was evaluated by a pre-test and post-test. Then, they began to train pregnant women, individually or in groups, referred to healthcare centers for receiving primary health care (PHC). Findings: During 9 month from the beginning of our study, 2726 mothers were taught and 1896 of them reached to the end of PREGNANCY term and delivered. The study showed that there was a significant association between decreasing cesarean rate and TRAINING (OR=0.46 99% CI [0.38, 0.56]). On the other hand, total cesarean rate of Malayer city decreased in the year 1383 compared with that in the year 1382, and the association between decreasing cesarean rate and TRAINING intervention was statistically significant (OR=0.76 99% CI [0.68, 0.85]). Conclusion: Thus, it seems that intervention can decrease cesarean rate effectively and is estimated that if this intervention is carried out in health centers all over the country, its effectiveness would be considerable.
