阴道分娩后会阴伤口裂开的妇女的保守治疗或重新缝合 (HEAL)
阴道分娩后会阴裂开(治愈)——保守治疗或重新缝合
The goal of this observational study is to make us more aware of the short and long-term outcomes for women having an uncomplicated healing process after a rupture or birth cut in the perineum after giving birth in relation to a healing process with a dehisced wound treated with conservative management or secondary suturing.
Participants will be asked to do
- A gynecological examination at one month after birth and 9-12 months after birth.
- Have a picture taken of the healing process
- Answer a questionnaire at one month, three months, and 9-12 months after birth
研究概览
详细说明
The best way to manage perineal wound dehiscence after childbirth is unknown. Currently, there is no agreed best practice recommendation for managing perineal wound dehiscence due to a lack of evidence comparing conservative management with secondary suturing. Therefore, studies are urgently needed to compare the benefits and risks of both treatments. This study has the potential to significantly impact women´s health for those suffering from perineal wound dehiscence.
The investigators want to include 100 women who have had a primary repair of a second-degree tear or episiotomy with a normal/uncomplicated healing process, 100 women with a second-degree tear or episiotomy identified with a dehisced wound treated with secondary resuturing, and 100 women with a second-degree tear or episiotomy identified with a dehisced wound treated with conservative management.
All women who meet the inclusion criteria are recommended the same treatment and follow-up as currently present as standard care at the four hospitals that the investigators are recruiting from. The study deviates from the standard of care by offering two extra clinical examinations, one questionnaire evaluation without clinical examination, and a follow-up with pictures of the perineal tear healing process.

We want to include 100 women who have had a primary repair of a second-degree tear or episiotomy with an uncomplicated healing process. They will only be recruited from the Perineal Care Clinics at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Copenhagen University Hospital - Herlev. Furthermore, we want to include 100 women with a second-degree tear or episiotomy identified with a dehisced wound treated with secondary resuturing, and 100 women with a second-degree tear or episiotomy identified with a dehisced wound treated with conservative management. They will be recruited from the Perineal Care Clinics at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Copenhagen University Hospitals - Rigshospitalet, Herlev Hospital, North Zealand Hospital, and Hvidovre Hospital. The women will come for a clinical examination to assess wound infection and healing 4 - 14 days post-partum.

Normal/uncomplicated healing process
100 women with a second-degree tear or episiotomy primarily sutured after labor: identified with a normal/uncomplicated healing process |
A clinical examination is needed to assess the healing process for the three groups. After assessing the healing process, we will take pictures of the tear for documentation. The participant will answer questions, serving as a baseline questionnaire, when arriving at the clinical examination one month post-partum. At three and 9-12 months post-postpartum, they will receive another questionnaire. The questionnaire will consist of validated questions regarding body image, pain, Urogynecological problems as symptoms of prolapse, urinary and anal incontinence, and questions about sexual problems. |
