Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rectovaginal fistulaup to 1 month postpartum

Incidence of Rectovaginal fistula after Episiotomy closure

Long-term perineal pain (VAS)up to 1 month postpartum

This parameter will be noted using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) which state "0" at one end representing "no pain" and "100" at the opposite end representing "heavy pain".

Rate of Re-suturingup to 1 month postpartum

Other surgical site infections are more serious and can involve tissues under the skin, organs, or implanted material (A2).

Abscess formationup to 1 month postpartum

Incidence of Abscess formation after Episiotomy closure

Short-term Pain in daily living (VAS)24-48 hours postpartum

Hematomaup to 1 month postpartum

Incidence of Hematoma after Episiotomy closure

Short-term perineal pain (VAS)after 48 hours postpartum

This parameter will be noted using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) which state "0" at one end representing "no pain" and "100" at the opposite end representing "heavy pain".

Number of patients requiring suture removal due to wound problems (infection, gaping wound, residual material requiring removal)

Bleedingup to 1 month postpartum

Incidence of Bleeding after Episiotomy closure

Long-term Pain in daily living (VAS)up to 1 month postpartum
