Rates of caesarean section surgery are rising worldwide, but the determinants of this increase, especially in low-income and middle-income countries, are controversial. In this study, we aimed to analyse the contribution of specifi c obstetric populations to changes in caesarean section rates, by using the Robson classifi cation in two WHO multicountry surveys of deliveries in health-care facilities. The Robson system classifi es all deliveries into one of ten groups on the basis of fi ve parameters: obstetric history, onset of labour, fetal lie, number of neonates, and gestational age.
