Filter by:The aim of this study is to show that the performance of Novosyn® Quick suture material is comparable with other suture material used for episiotomy. In order to show that, various safety and efficacy parameters have been selected. The outcome regarding these parameters will be evaluated by a quantitative summary of the available clinical data from the literature. Study population consists of women with a spontaneous vaginal delivery who required perineal repair due to an episiotomy.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the role of routine perineal scan using 2D ultrasound immediatly after delivery to diagnose hidden perineal trauma that might affect patient's fecal continance
This study will be undertaken to question the superiority of use skin adhesive tape (® Steri-Strip) closure system in wound healing over the traditional running absorbable subcuticular suture technique in perineal repair after episiotomy.

Many obstetrical interventions used in Latin America, as in other parts of the world, have been shown to be ineffective or harmful, while effective interventions remain underutilized. This study will develop and evaluate an intervention intended to implement two evidence-based practices among birth attendants in Latin America, the selective use of episiotomies and active management of the third stage of labor.
