Stitch showdown: which cesarean closure heals best?

NCT ID NCT07451275

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at 300 adults having planned cesarean deliveries to see if the way doctors close the wound under the skin affects healing. Three methods were compared: no stitches, a few separate stitches, or one long continuous stitch. The goal was to find out which method leads to fewer wound problems, like infection or fluid buildup, by ten days after surgery, and how it affects surgery time.
