Population Characteristics
Table 2 presents the characteristics of the overall population
and per year. There was no significant difference between the years
except for primiparity, a history of scarred uterus, and cesarean
section during labor. These data are different for the year 2017
compared to other years (p < 0.05).
Overall, 250 of the 800 cesarean sections were coded green (31.3%), 263
orange (32.9%), and 85 red (10.6%). For 202 patients (25.3%), the
color code was missing from the medical record, whether computerized or
paper. These data are presented in Table 3 . Between 2015 and
2018, the number of patients for whom a color code was not mentioned in
the file decreased significantly (p<0.0001). These were mainly
for green and orange coded cesarean sections, for which the number
increased significantly over the years (p <
0.0001). Conversely, there was no significant difference in the number
of red code cesarean sections.
