Summary

The Effect of Rectus Muscle Re-approximation on Postoperative Pain Among Primigravida Singleton Pregnancies Who Underwent Elective Cesarean Section: A Randomized Prospective Trial.

Cesarean section is the most common surgical procedure performed in women in all around the world. Cesarean delivery rate has increased dramatically worldwide but there is still debate about the optimum operative technique of cesarean section.

Rectus muscle reapproximation, or suturing of the rectus muscles, is performed by many obstetricians in several countries, presumably to reduce the risk of persistent rectus muscle diastasis. However, there was a few studies about the short and long term effects of rectus muscle reapproximation in the literature.

On this account, the investigators aimed to design a randomized prospective trial about the effect of rectus muscle re-approximation on postoperative pain among primigravida singleton pregnancies who underwent elective cesarean section.
