      "My sister had her face cut by a surgeon through an emergency c-section. She is scarred for life, she has a 3inch scar running down from the side of her eye."

      "I don't care about the money. Nothing can help the feeling you get every time you look at your baby's face and see a huge scar. It is so hard to deal with."

      “There was a girl on BOTB when I was PG with Mia who had that happen. Dr. cut her daughter's forehead. And I was friends with twin girls in HS - one of them had a 2" scar on her cheek from the C-section. She was a pretty girl.”

      Fetal lacerations at c-section

      Fetal lacerations at c-section

      Fetal lacerations occurred in 1•5% of caesarean sections carried out in our institution. the incidence was independent of type of caesarean section, fetal presentation, cervical dilatation, presence of intact membranes or operator grade. We advocate that this complication should be included in the preoperative counselling of all patients undergoing caesarean sections.

      Laceration injury at Cesarean

      Laceration injury at Cesarean

      Conclusions: Laceration injury to the infant during Cesarean section is associated with a laboring uterus. This is an important complication that should be part of preoperative counselling and should be documented appropriately when it occurs.

      Fetal Laceration Injury at Cesarean

      Fetal Laceration Injury at Cesarean

      Objective: To investigate the incidence of fetal laceration injury in cesarean delivery.
      Results: There were 904 cesarean deliveries performed during the study period; of these, 896 neonatal records (98.4%) were available for review. Seventeen laceration injuries were recorded (1.9%). The incidence of laceration appeared higher when the indication for cesarean was nonvertex (6.0% versus 1.4%, P = .02). One of 17 (5.9%) maternal records indicated the presence of the laceration of the fetus.

      “C SAFE is another example of a truly simple device that someone should have thought of sooner but didn’t”

      PATIENT SAFETY

      “C SAFE won me over. With all the wasted money we throw at the sacred altar of Patient Safety, this product actually makes sense and is worth the marginal cost. I think it is time we made newborn lacerations a “never” event and C SAFE is one tool to get us there.”

      DESIGN/FUNCTIONALITY

      DESIGN/FUNCTIONALITY

      “In trial use during a cesarean delivery, C SAFE worked exactly as expected. Push the blunted plastic tip through the uterus, nend your hand, push the device, and voila – a hysterotomy with almost no laceration risk to the baby”
