To compare the incidence of wound complications between suture and staple skin closure after cesarean delivery.This prospective, randomized clinical trial conducted at three hospitals in United States 2010 2012 included women undergoing delivery 23 weeks gestation or greater through a low-transverse incision. Women were to incision with staples stratifying by body mass index primary compared repeat delivery. The outcome was complications, predefined as composite infection, hematoma, seroma,...
A cesarean scar pregnancy is an iatrogenic consequence of a previous delivery. The gestational sac implants into niche created by the incision delivery, and this carries substantial risk for major maternal complications. aim study was to report, analyze, compare effectiveness safety different treatments options pregnancies managed in first trimester through registry.
Objective: To evaluate patient satisfaction and physician assessment of scar appearance after cesarean skin closure with suture versus staples. Methods: Women undergoing delivery (CD) at ≥23 weeks' gestation via low-transverse incisions three hospitals in the CROSS Consortium were randomized to receive using subcuticular absorbable or nonabsorbable metal The primary outcome this substudy, satisfaction, was assessed by surveys postpartum visit a 10-point Likert scale. Scar outcomes according...
To assess pain perception and medication use between women who underwent suture those stapling for skin closure after cesarean delivery.This was a secondary analysis of prospective, multicenter, randomized clinical trial conducted from 2010 to 2012 at three hospitals in the United States. We evaluated outcomes associated with low transverse incision delivery. Patient-reported during hospitalization 6 weeks postpartum were as prespecified trial.A total 746 sutures (n=370) or staples (n=376)....
INTRODUCTION: To determine which of the two most common methods cesarean skin closure resulted in greater patient satisfaction and better cosmetic outcome. METHODS: We conducted a prospective, multicenter, randomized clinical trial women undergoing delivery via low transverse incisions were allocated to with suture or staples. Patients asked rate their method cosmesis using Likert scale. used validated scar assessment tool (the Patient Observer Scar Assessment Scale subjective objective...
PURPOSE:Since Black patients have higher rates of cesarean birth, and implicit racial bias in clinical decision-making has been demonstrated multiple contexts, we sought to determine if is present providers' decisions about birth due category II fetal heart tracings. METHODS:We constructed an online survey study consisting two scenarios labor with tracings.One vignette described a patient history (undergoing trial after cesarean, or TOLAC); one without this history.Patient race was...
Objective: To assess patient preference for sutures or staples cesarean wound closure.Methods: This is a planned secondary analysis of randomized controlled trial 746 women in which suture and were compared skin closure. Enrolled patients asked to complete preoperative postoperative surveys preferred Reasons expressed preferences elicited each patient. Preferences stratified by number deliveries (CD). We sought determine if had specific closure due personal experience belief that one method...
Some women have underlying cardiovascular disease that leads to increased morbidity and mortality with pregnancy. These may choose terminate a pregnancy rather than face this risk. The optimal approach for termination in cardiomyopathy is not well defined. We present two peripartum cardiomyopathy, both modified World Health Organization (mWHO) class IV elevated Cardiac Disease Pregnancy (CARPREG II) risk stratification scores who are at the highest continuation. Both underwent induced...
Despite the high numbers of cesarean deliveries performed, there are few data to guide surgeons on whether use continuous subcutaneous sutures or multiple metal staples for closure delivery skin incision. This randomized clinical trial compared incidence wound complications after among women whose incisions were closed with suture and those staples. The study was conducted at 3 hospitals in United States between 2010 2012. Women undergoing 23 weeks gestation greater through a low-transverse...
This patient presented with pelvic pain and intrauterine pregnancy following insertion of copper device, whose strings had previously been palpable by the patient. We performed medical abortion followed laparoscopy, which identified device in retroperitoneum overlying ureter iliac vessels. location suggests migration as were After intact removal, opted for a replacement device.
( Obstet Gynecol. 2015;126:702–707) Cesarean delivery is typically performed by a suprapubic low-transverse skin incision, which closed with the placement of either continuous absorbable suture or interrupted staples. Studies that have examined pain associated closure compared staple are varied and limited. The authors present study thereby patient-reported medication use these 2 forms for cesarean delivery. This was secondary analysis prospective, multicenter, randomized clinical trial 746...
