Evaluation of Intraoperative Outcome of Different Techniques of Lower Segment Caesarean Section

Abstract

Obstetricians are constantly striving to make caesarean section safer and economical with less post-operative morbidity and decreased hospital stay. The simplest and most appropriate surgical method, causing the least possible damage to the tissue is sought. This was an interventional study done over one year in a tertiary care hospital.Pfannenstiel Kerr (PK) and Misgav Ladach ( ML) methods of lower segment caesarean section were compared.Incision to delivery of foetus and total operative time was lesser in Misgav Ladach method in comĀ¬parison to the Pfannenstiel Kerr method and this difference was statistically significant.Since blunt dissection was done in MML method,the blood loss was also less. More suture material was used in Pfannenstiel Kerr method. MML was a better method as it satisfied the goal of good technique in caesarean section by having ease in opening the abdomen, short incision delivery interval ,causing least possible trauma to tissue with shorter total operative time, less blood loss, use of less suture material and simplified surgery.
