Abstract

Surgical wound dehiscence is a common complication following cesarean section that can delay recovery and increase the risk of infection and prolonged hospitalization. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors associated with surgical wound dehiscence at the Obstetrics Clinic of Bumi Panua Pohuwato Regional Hospital. The study included 65 postpartum mothers who underwent treatment at the clinic. Data were collected from medical records and wound care logs, then analyzed to identify significant factors. The results showed that maternal age, anemia status, nutritional status (based on body mass index), surgical wound infection, and duration of surgery were all significantly associated with the occurrence of wound dehiscence. However, comorbidities did not show a significant relationship. The study concluded that cesarean section surgical wound dehiscence is influenced by various maternal and clinical factors. These findings emphasize the importance of implementing risk-based postoperative care, including close wound monitoring, infection prevention, and addressing anemia and nutritional issues, to reduce post-cesarean section complications and improve recovery outcomes.
