<![CDATA[Cesarean section (CS) is a surgical procedure performed to deliver a fetus through an incision in the abdominal wall and uterine wall. The incision in the abdomen may cause disruption of the subcutaneous tissue, affect hemostasis and blood circulation, and increase the risk of bleeding and wound infection. One of the interventions performed by healthcare professionals to support and accelerate the healing process of cesarean section wounds is early mobilization. Early mobilization refers to a series of activities initiated shortly after cesarean section surgery, beginning with turning to the right and left sides, sitting up and sitting at the bedside, followed by getting out of bed, standing, and gradually learning to walk with assistance according to the patient's condition. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of early mobilization on wound healing after cesarean section. Methods: This study employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive research method. The study population consisted of post-cesarean section. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. Results: The results showed that the majority of respondents, namely 23 respondents (92%), experienced wound healing in the good category, while 2 respondents (8%) had wound healing in the less favorable category. Conclusion: Patient after cesarean section who performed early mobilization demonstrated good wound healing. Early mobilization can be considered as one of the nursing interventions to support wound healing in post-cesarean section patients.]]>
