Background: The caesarean section rate is an important factor that characterizes the effectiveness of the obstetric service. The large variability of the initial state of women in labor and the variety of indications for surgery does not allow us to identify the main determinants. We attempted to determine and analyzed the first data on the structure and frequency of caesarean section in Armenia in the hospital of the Erebоuni multidisciplinary clinic before the introduction of the M. Robson scale. Methodology: We conducted a retrospective study of the history of childbirth in 38,111 patients registered at the Erebouni Medical Center for the period 2016-2021. The materials of the study were case histories, hospitalization materials and annual reports. Results: According to the obtained data, 80.5% of caesarean section operations were performed as planned. Only 14% of pregnant women were delivered by caesarean section according to absolute indications, the frequency of that in this maternity hospital increased from 36.77% to 44.95% over the analyzed period Conclusion: Thorough psychoprophylactic preparation of pregnant women for childbirth, including those with a scar on the uterus after a previous cesarean section, can ensure a steady desire of women in labor for vaginal delivery, full mobilization of their own capabilities, and more trusting cooperation with medical staff.
