Abstract
Background: Surgical site infections, resulting from surgical procedures, can significantly impact healthcare systems and individual patients, necessitating the implementation of a surgical care bundle to reduce their incidence.
Aim: To investigate the effect of surgical care bundle on post-cesarean wound infection.
Design: The research design was quasi-experimental.
Settings: The study was conducted at the obstetrics and gynecology departments of University Hospital and Shebin El-Kom Teaching Hospitals, Menoufia Governorate, Egypt.
Sample: A sample of one hundred women was chosen as convenient for the study.
Instruments: A structured interview questionnaire and surgical checklist were utilized.
Results: The results showed that 100% of the intervention group had healthy wound status after 48 h compared to 80.0% of the control group.
Conclusion: The surgical care bundle application pre-, during, and post-cesarean section significantly reduces the risk of cesarean section wound infection. The incorporation of these surgical care bundles into comprehensive surgical quality programs for women undergoing cesarean section.
