A low-risk, first-time mother is up to 15 times more likely to have a primary cesarean birth at one hospital than another. Obstetric guidelines support mothers who want to plan a VBAC and 3 out of 4 will have a safe vaginal birth. Yet in 2018 only 13.3% of U.S. mothers with a previous cesarean gave birth vaginally.
Laboring for a VBAC helps women avoid a routine repeat cesarean, which exposes them to multiple risks including hemorrhage, serious infection, blood clots, and placental problems. Maternity care professional associations worldwide support women who want to labor for a VBAC.
Yet in 2018 only 13.3% of U.S. mothers with a previous cesarean gave birth vaginally. Nearly half of expectant mothers surveyed in California 2017 reported that they would have wanted to labor for a VBAC but their providers did not support their choice and recommended a routine repeat cesarean instead.

A typical frequency shift varies from 27 MHz, for a less-expensive AOM, to 1 GHz, for a state-of-the-art commercial device. In some AOMs, two acoustic waves travel in opposite directions in the material, creating a standing wave. Diffraction from the standing wave does not shift the frequency of the diffracted light.
By vibrating the material with a pure sinusoid and tilting the AOM so the light is reflected from the flat sound waves into the first diffraction order, up to 90% deflection efficiency can be achieved.
