Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: platelet rich plasma gel
Injection of Platelet rich plasma (PRP) gel in 64 cases at time of wound closure in women undergoing cesarean section for improving wound healing after fullfit to all the inclusion and exclusion craiteria
Platelet rich plasma is prepared from fresh whole blood which is collected from a peripheral vein stored in acid citrare dextrose solution A (ACD-A)anticoagulant and processed to increase platelets by separating various components of blood
Other Names:
  • PRP
  • platelete rich plasma (PRP)
Placebo Comparator: Saline
64 Controlled Women with recurrent cesarean section and fullfit to all the inclusion and exclusion craiteria will reseve saline injection at time of wound closure
64 controlled women with recurrent cesarean section and fullfit to all inclusion and exclusion craiteria will reseve saline injection at time of wound closure
