The Effect of Negative-Pressure Wound Therapy on Wound Complications in Obese Women after Caesarean Birth
Wednesday, 27 May, 2026

In this May Journal Club episode, we discuss The Effect of Negative-Pressure Wound Therapy on Wound Complications in Obese Women after Caesarean Birth. This paper explores whether prophylactic negative-pressure wound therapy can reduce postoperative wound complications in obese women undergoing caesarean birth - a population at increased risk of surgical site infection, wound dehiscence, and delayed healing.Join us as we break down the study design, key findings, clinical implications, and limitations of the evidence, with discussion around how this research may influence obstetric practice and postoperative care.Website: https://www.pvogs.org/
