Single or Double-layer Uterine Closure Techniques Following Cesarean: An Ongoing Debate
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Residual myometrium thickness, Niche Presence, and 2 other interventions for Uterine Scar and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 282 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
There are different surgical techniques of uterine closure during cesarean. A growing data has suggested that the closure technique has an effect on uterine scar healing. Residual myometrium thickness and uterine scar defect (niche) development seems to be related to the single or double layer closure of uterus. In that study, investigators will search for the effect of single or double layer closure of uterus during cesarean on the uterine scar defect.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The myometrium will be closed by single or double layer during cesarean and residual myometrium thickness will be evaluated in 6 to 9 months by saline infusion sonography.
The myometrium will be closed by single or double layer during cesarean and niche presence will be evaluated in 6 to 9 months by saline infusion sonography.
The myometrium will be closed by single or double layer during cesarean and adjacent myometrium thickness will be evaluated in 6 to 9 months by saline infusion sonography.
The myometrium will be closed by single or double layer during cesarean and three dimensional niche measurements will be evaluated in 6 to 9 months by saline infusion sonography.
