Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of the Alexis O C-section retractor in obese patients (BMI ≥30 kg/m2) who undergo Cesarean sections. Patients will be randomized to the use of the Alexis retractor during Cesarean section (treatment group) or the use of traditional hand-held retractors (control group). We will determine if there is any difference in surgical site infection or wound disruption rates. We will also determine if there is a difference in the duration of surgery or length of time from skin incision to delivery of the infant, change in hemoglobin, estimated blood loss, and postoperative length of stay, intra-operative or postoperative anti-emetic requirements, need for hospital readmission or emergency room visits, or other complication rate between the two groups.
