Migration and Caesarean Section Birth in the United Kingdom: A Secondary Analysis of Born in Bradford Data
High variation in the incidence of C-section amongst migrant populations was observed, replicating findings from the few other international studies. Further in-depth exploration is required to understand the impact of this variation on maternal and neonatal health disparities, and to assess the contribution of potential pathophysiological and sociocultural factors on related decision-making processes.
