C section for breech...timing of confirmation of breech?

Hi, I'm an anesthesiologist in Canada...I had a patient booked for primary section for breech. Their last ultrasound was 2 weeks ago. The surgeon palpated the fetuses position, and although they didn't seem 100% sure, felt the baby was still breech..(he wasn't, which was evident during the c section) This made me wonder: Are there any clear guidelines about confirmation of breech position prior to C section for breech? eg. should an ultrasound have been done day of? or is palpation... C section for breech...timing of confirmation of breech?
