Results: This study included 38 samples; the results of nutritional status based on BMI 22 samples were obese (57.9%), nine patients were overweight (23.7%), six patients had normal BMI (15.8%), and one patient category Underweight (2.6%). If seen from the Hb of post-laparotomy patients with wound dehiscence, 21 patients had anemia (55.3%), and 17 patients did not have anemia (44.7%). Conclusion: The most common post-laparotomy wound dehiscence with nutrition occurred in women, age group 18-29 years, cesarean section surgery, nutritional status of obesity, and anemia.
