Study Summary
There are millions of births each year with 32% of women undergoing cesarean sections (C-sections), which results in skin scarring. Repeat C-sections increased by 178% from 1979-2010. Given the frequency of C-sections, it is important to achieve a desirable cosmetic outcome. The PICO 7 dressing consists of a negative pressure wound therapy pump (NPWT) connected to an absorbent gentle adhesive dressing that is applied to a wound. When the pump is activated, it acts by pulling excess fluid from the wound. The dressing absorbs this fluid and helps to prevent bacteria from entering the wound. It has been shown to prevent wound infections and promote healing. This study aims to compare the aesthetic appearance by using The Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS) scar assessment scale following closed incision negative pressure therapy with a PICO 7 dressing to the standard abdominal dressing in women undergoing repeat cesarean sections
Interventions
- DEVICE PICO 7 dressing
