Also the increasing advances in assessing fetal maturity and fetal well being have improved the ability to use cesarean section in a more efficient manner. Thus the present study was undertaken to see the immediate outcome of cesarean section such as birth weight, APGAR score, post section hemoglobin status. Aims and objectives: ¬To find out an immediate outcome of cesarean section in primiparous patients. Material and Methods: The present study was conducted at ACPM Medical College, Dhule.
