The goal of this observational study is to compare the incidence of post-cesarean section wound infections between emergency and elective cesarean deliveries at El-hussien Hospital. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Participants will be 220 patients undergoing cesarean section, divided into two groups:

110 patients undergoing emergency cesarean delivery in the Emergency Unit 110 patients undergoing elective cesarean delivery

Researchers will compare the emergency cesarean group to the elective cesarean group to see if there are differences in surgical site infection rates and other relevant outcome measures.
