简要总结
Surgical site infections are complicationsassociated with caesarean delivery which may lead to a substantial effect on the mother’s health. Repeat caesarean have significant association with wound infections.
Copper not only acts as an antimicrobial agent but also stimulates wound healing. Copper impregnated wound dressing has been significantly associated with healing of chronic non healing wounds like diabetic ulcer, pressureulcers, first and second degree wounds and many more.
Hence, we plan to study the effect of copper impregnated wound dressing in repeat caesarean delivery for primary wound healing and risk for surgical site infections following the same.
