Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To demonstrate the clinical equivalence between Trusynth Plus Neo and Vicryl Plus sutures in caesarean section wound closure, as assessed by the change in ASEPSIS wound score from Day 3 post-surgery (Day 3 1 day) to Day 30 post-surgery (Day 30 7 days)Timepoint: Visit 3 (Day 3 1), Visit 5 (Day 30 7)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To compare postoperative wound condition between Trusynth Plus Neo and Vicryl Plus sutures following caesarean section, as assessed by the change in ASEPSIS wound score from Day 3 post-surgery (Day 3 1 day) to Day 14 ( 3 days), Day 30 ( 7 days), and Day 90 ( 7 days) post-surgeryTimepoint: Visit 3 (Day 3 1), Visit 4 (Day 14 3), Visit 5 (Day 30 7), Visit 6 (Day 90 7);To compare the operative time between Trusynth Plus Neo and Vicryl Plus suture groupsTimepoint: Visit 2 (Day of Surgery);To compare the intra-operative suture handling and needle characteristics between Trusynth Plus Neo and Vicryl Plus suture groupsTimepoint: Visit 2 (Day of Surgery);To compare the intra-operative complications between Trusynth Plus Neo and Vicryl Plus suture groupsTimepoint: Visit 2 (Day of Surgery);To compare the incidence of post-operative complications, including surgical site infection and other wound-related complications, between Trusynth Plus Neo and Vicryl Plus suture groupsTimepoint: Visit 3 (Day 3 1), Visit 4 (Day 14 3), Visit 5 (Day 30 7), Visit 6 (Day 90 7);To compare the length of hospital stay between Trusynth Plus Neo and Vicryl Plus suture groupsTimepoint: Visit 4 (to collect the date of discharge);To compare the postoperative pain intensity between Trusynth Plus Neo and Vicryl Plus suture groupsTimepoint: Visit 3 (Day 3 1), Visit 4 (Day 14 3), Visit 5 (Day 30 7), Visit 6 (Day 90 7);To compare postoperative activities of daily living between the Trusynth Plus Neo and Vicryl Plus suture groupsTimepoint: Visit 3 (Day 3 1), Visit 4 (Day 14 3), Visit 5 (Day 30 7), Visit 6 (Day 90 7);To compare the incidence of residual risks, adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) between Trusynth Plus Neo and Vicryl Plus suture groupsTimepoint: Visit 2 (Day of surgery), Visit 3 (Day 3 1), Visit 4 (Day 14 3), Visit 5 (Day 30 7), Visit 6 (Day 90 7);To compare the cosmetic appearance of the resultant surgical scar following caesarean section between
