Drain placement in c-section for women with thick belly fat
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests if placing a small drain under the skin during a cesarean section reduces surgical site infections in women with a belly fat thickness of 4 cm or more. It may help prevent infections and improve recovery.

This study tests whether placing a small drain under the skin after a deep abdominal incision for gynecologic cancer surgery helps prevent wound problems. It may be a good fit if you have a thicker layer of belly fat and are having a planned surgery.
This trial tests whether a continuous (one-piece) or interrupted (separate) closure technique for the fat layer during a C-section lowers the chance of a surgical-site infection. It may help improve healing and reduce infection risk after surgery.
This trial compares two types of suture material used to close the skin after a C-section. It focuses on women with a BMI of 40 or higher to see which option may lead to better healing.
This study tests a special vacuum bandage (called NPWT) to prevent wound infections after emergency belly surgery in people with diabetes and high infection risk. The goal is to see if this dressing helps heal better than standard care.
This trial tests whether a special vacuum-sealed dressing (called VSD) helps heal surgical wounds that became infected after obstetric or gynecological surgery. The goal is to see if this treatment speeds healing and reduces complications.
This trial tests a super-oxidized cleaning solution to see if it reduces infections after emergency surgery for a hole in the intestine. If you are having open belly surgery for an infected gut, this study may help guide safer recovery.
