Summary

This study is testing a new biodegradable patch made from amniotic membrane and calcium alginate to help surgical wounds heal after a C-section. The patch is placed on the skin incision to promote faster healing and better scar quality. Researchers will enroll 100 women and measure healing through blood tests, ultrasound, and scar assessments.
