Amniotic membrane dressing for C-section wound healing
Part of Skin, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a special dressing made from amniotic membrane (the thin sac that surrounds a baby in the womb) and calcium alginate, placed on the C-section incision to help it heal better. It is for women having a planned C-section for a medical reason (like breech baby or previous C-section scar).
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
