However, due to concerns regarding inclusion of ethnicity, a new nomogram has been developed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Aim<\/jats:title><jats:p>The aim was to evaluate the efficacy of the updated Grobman nomogram without ethnicity in a regional hospital in Australia.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This was a retrospective cohort study of women electing to have a VBAC at a regional hospital over a nine\u2010year period. Maternal demographics and obstetric outcomes were collected. Women were assigned a predicted likelihood of successful VBAC using the updated Grobman nomogram, with variables such as age, pre\u2010pregnancy weight, height and arrest disorder as indications for previous caesarean birth, previous vaginal birth, previous VBAC and treated chronic hypertension. The predicted likelihood of successful VBAC was compared with actual successful VBAC rates.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 541 women attempted VBAC with a VBAC success rate of 74.3% (402\/541). The nomogram demonstrated good fit, with a receiver operating curve area under the curve of 0.707 (95% confidence interval 0.659\u20130.755). Using a cut\u2010off value of 0.5, the success rate of classification with this model was 74.3%. On comparing each predicted decile, the nomogram performed poorly in those predicted to have a &lt;40% chance of successful VBAC.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study confirms the use of the updated Grobman nomogram without ethnicity, alongside usual counselling, to provide individualised advice for informed decision\u2010making. However, clinicians should be mindful of the limitation of poor accuracy in women with a low predicted probability of VBAC.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/ajo.13619","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,19]],"date-time":"2022-10-19T09:50:50Z","timestamp":1666173050000},"page":"314-320","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Validation
