Region-specific variation and determinants of caesarean delivery among ever-married women in Bangladesh
Policymakers can address the high rate of caesarean deliveries by targeting several key factors at various geographic levels. Raising family awareness about the benefits of normal delivery can encourage expectant parents to make informed choices. They should also ensure the quality of care provided in hospitals, ensuring that medical professionals follow evidence-based guidelines for childbirth. Furthermore, implementing a centralized or local pregnancy registration system may enhance the monitoring and access to maternal health services.
