Summary

Retrospective chart review using both out patient and inpatient records of obese patients (BMI of 30 or greater) who have had a cesarean section since the year 2009. We will evaluate the patient's BMI, their skin incision type at time of c-section, their co-morbidities, number of previous c-sections and post partum follow up for wound infection, wound separation and wound breakdown. We will also review operative notes to evaluate blood loss, length of surgery and complications during surgery. We will obtain maternal characteristics and information about the pregnancy.
