Data quality note - Identification of vaginal birth after previous caesarean delivery
Some figures for the CQIMVBAC metric (women who gave birth to a baby vaginally after a previous caesarean section) have been amended and reissued in this publication, following an improvement to the construction of this metric.
Previously a small number of first-time births were being considered in this metric due to some inconsistencies in the recording of the number of a woman’s previous births. For this metric, we now disregard any pregnancies where the count of previous births is amended after the labour and delivery.
