Closing Uterine Incision During C-section Using Barbed Suture (Stratafix) or Vicryl Suture: a Randomized Control Study
Closing Uterine Incision During C-section Using Barbed Suture (Stratafix) or Vicryl Suture: a Randomized Control Study
A Randomized prospective single blinded trial. The investigator seek to evaluate the surgical outcome of Stratafix barbed suture compared to standart Vicryl sutures in reducing the suturing time during C-Section.
A Randomized prospective single blinded trial. The investigator seek to evaluate the surgical outcome of Stratafix barbed suture compared to standart Vicryl sutures in reducing the suturing time during C-Section. In addition, the need of additional sutures to control bleeding after the 2- layer closure will be estimated.These will be the primary outcome measures. The secondary outcome measures will be factors related to the blood loss at the time of the uterine closure, surgical complications, duration of hospital stay, postoperative infection (endometritis) and wound infection..
