Managing surgical site infections after caesarean section with Leukomed Sorbact
Birth by caesarean section is common but can present complications, including surgical site infections. This article covers the symptoms and risk factors of surgical site infections, as well as how to minimise the risk for mothers having a caesarean section during antenatal, perinatal and postnatal care. It considers the role of Leukomed Sorbact film dressing in reducing the risk of post‑caesarean surgical site infection and the need for antibiotic treatment and separation of mother and baby.
