Can Preadmission Inflammatory Markers Inform Episiotomy Wound Dehiscence Risk? A Case-Control Study in Primiparous Women

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to determine whether preadmission inflammatory markers are associated with the risk of episiotomy wound dehiscence in primiparous women. Their retrospective case-control study found that lower preadmission neutrophil counts were significantly linked to an increased risk of dehiscence, suggesting that these markers could potentially inform clinical assessments, although further prospective studies are needed to clarify the underlying mechanisms.
