Abstract
The aim of the study is to make an audit for all females delivered by cesarean section (CS) at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Benha Educational Hospital for 6 months, so as to improve the quality of care and perform continuous quality improvement.

Postoperative stay was mainly between 1 to 4 days. The resident doctors were the main surgical staff who performed cesarean section and spinal anesthesia was the most common method of anesthesia used.
