How the C-section has evolved through history.
This talk will explore how caesarean section has evolved from a rare life-saving procedure to one which fits with 21st-century expectations of birth. Patterns of births in north-east Scotland since 1950 will be discussed, with comparisons made to national and international centres.
Free, no booking required.
