No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study is investigating the relative risks and benefits of using two common materials for coverage of the skin incision at cesarean delivery. We will perform the first prospective and the first randomized controlled trial examining the use of a standard postoperative dressing versus skin glue for coverage of the closed skin incision after cesarean delivery. The hypothesis is that using skin glue for coverage of the incision will be associated with decreased wound complications and increased patient satisfaction.
