THE RATE OF SURGICAL SITE INFECTION WITH CHANGING GLOVE DURING CEASREAN SECTION
Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction: Many clinical trials explored the implication of various intervention strategies to reduce SSI rate following cesarean section. Several studies have showed that glove changing during a procedure decrease wound related complications. Purpose: To compare the rates of wound related complications among women undergoing a cesarean section when the surgical team used intra-operative glove changing versus usual care. Methods: In Hung Vuong Hospital, From Dec 2020 to Mar 2021, 319 women were randomized to usual care and 310 women were randomized to intra-operative glove changing.All women undergoing a cesarean section were randomized to usual care or intra-operative glove-changing prior to abdominal closure. The primary outcome was any wound related complication, including seroma, wound infection. Results: Intra-operative glove changing led to a significant decrease in composite wound complications from 7.8 % in the control group to 2.6% in the intervention group (p=0.005). Conclusion: Changing gloves during cesarean prior to abdominal wall closure may decrease the incidence of wound complications following cesarean section.
