  • Abstract— There is controversy regarding betterment of cesarean section or vaginal delivery as per neonatal outcomes. So this study was conducted on 100 cesarean section and 100 vaginal delivery to compare the neonatal outcomes in cesarean section or vaginal delivery. Chi-square test and unpaired 't' tests were used to find out difference in proportion and means respectively. The present study revealed that there was no significant difference in neonatal outcomes in CS group and VD group in outcome of delivery, baby weight, and Apgar score after five minutes of delivery. Proportion of cases with reparatory distress were also without significant difference (p>0.05). Only significant (p<0.05) difference was observed in Apgar score at birth, where it was significantly more in CS group than VD group.
