Concordance between women's self-reported reasons for cesarean delivery and hospital discharge records.
Researchers compared women's self-reported reasons for cesarean with their hospital discharge records and examined correlates of variability in agreement between sources. Ninety-one percent of women reported a reason for their cesarean that was present in the discharge data. Positive predictive value (PPV), the probability that women's self-reported reasons for cesarean varied by reason for cesarean, with high PPV for dystocia, macrosomia, and cephalopelvic disproportion (91.1 percent), and lower PPV for malposition (81.7 percent).
