What happens if a woman is at risk for uterine rupture as all repeat c sections are but uterine rupture is very rare?

Weigh the risk...: The risk of Uterine Rupture is low: .7% - .9% in women who elect to have a vaginal birth after a prior c/section (VBAC). However, a uterine rupture can result in brain damage to the baby or in the death of the mother, baby or both. If a labor and delivery unit allowed 1000 women to VBAC, this would result in 7 ruptures. Some patients/doctors are willing to take this risk, some are not.
