Abstract

Exteriorized and in situ repair of uterine incisions have similar effects on blood loss, temperature patterns, postoperative analgesic dosage and the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting. Although both methods of uterine incision repair are valid options during surgery, cesarean sections took less time and length of hospital stay was shorter when uterine incision was repaired in situ.
