One-third of cesarean deliveries (CDs) are repeat operations, of which the majority are low-order, second (CD2) and third (CD3). The study objectives were to identify risk factors for a complicated maternal CD among women undergoing a repeat low-order CD and to develop a predictive model for at-risk women. A retrospective longitudinal follow-up study was conducted in a single medical center, during 2005-2016. Women who underwent both CD2 and CD3 at the site were included. Those with placenta accreta or a caesarean hysterectomy were excluded. A composite complicated maternal CD was defined by either uterine rupture/dehiscence, blood transfusion, relaparotomy, admission to the intensive care unit or prolonged operative time >90th percentile. Data was analyzed comparing between CD2 to CD3, each woman served as her own control. Univariate analysis followed by a multivariate logistic regression modeling were performed with an OR of 95% CI defining significance. The study group comprised of 1,331 women. A complicated CD occurred in 159 (12%) vs. 226 (17%) of CD2 vs. CD3 respectively, (p
