Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to collect clinical data on the use of Novosyn® applied for the uterus closure in cesarean section. Diverse parameters have been selected to assess that the safety and effectiveness of Novosyn® is comparable to published results, where the rate of SSIs in patients undergoing uterus closure in cesarean section was 10.6%.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Rate of wound complications including post-cesarean section surgical site infections (SSIs) | within the first 30 days ± 10 days following cesarean delivery. | Incidence of wound complications including post-cesarean section surgical site infections (SSI). The documented infections include the following: * Organ/space surgical site infections or endometritis * Primary and secondary superficial incisional surgical site infections (involving the skin and subcutaneous tissue). * Primary and secondary deep incisional surgical site infections (involving fascial and muscle layers). * Severe complications of endometritis: septicemia, peritonitis, and septic thrombosis of the pelvic vessels. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| incidence of post-surgery complicated wound healing | within the first 30 days ± 10 days following cesarean delivery. | Frequency of patients with complicated wound healing. Wound healing assessment includes the healing progress, skin temperature, and the presence of oedema, seroma, and/or hematoma |
| Incidence of reoperations/readmissions | within the first 30 days ± 10 days following cesarean delivery. | Frequency of reoperations/readmissions |
| Length of Hospital Stay | up to discharge (up to 10 days after surgery) | Mean duration of hospital stay in patients undergoing cesarean section. |
| Need for blood transfusion | within the first 30 days ± 10 days following cesarean delivery. | Frequency of patients requiring blood transfusion |
| Incidence of Adverse device effects (ADEs) | within the first 30 days ± 10 days following cesarean delivery. | Frequency of patients with Adverse Device Effects (ADE), defined as any adverse event related to the use of an investigational medical device, including adverse events resulting from insufficient or inadequate Instructions for Use, deployment, implantation, installation, or operation, or any malfunction of the investigational medical device and any event resulting from use error or from intentional misuse of the investigational medical device. |
