Surgical procedures (including cesarean section) or accidental cuts, may leave marks on the skin in the form of scars and accompanying ailments. There are many methods of scar treatment, including physiotherapeutic techniques. The aim of the study was to present the issues of manual work with a scar on the example of a scar after a caesarean section. Soft tissue manipulation techniques allow physiotherapists to be effective in removing the negative effects of poor wound healing, including restoring the aesthetics of visible tissues.

Abstract: One of the new phenomena that is influenced by the development of the age and technology that has been more advanced is the process of giving birth by Caesarean section. Caesarean section clearly has a positive effect (benefit) and negative effects (mafsadat). In relation to this, what if examined from the standpoint of Islamic law, especially the view of the maslahat Ramadan al-Buti, which he is one of the clerical figure who cares about new issues and who give criteria or limits on a maslahat (dawabit)). Therefore, this study aims to answer the problem: How is C-section in Medical Review? and How to analyze dawabit maslahah Muhamad Said Ramadan al-Buti against the use of C-section in the medical world ?. To answer these two problems, then in this study the authors chose to use qualitative research, the use of qualitative methods is aimed for the data obtained more complete, more depth and credible.Temporary findings in the medical review Cesareans clearly have a positive effect and negative effects, as well as maternal mothers perform caesarean section with a variety of motives and purposes, some are forced, there is to maintain the beauty of the body and there is also a limit to the descent. Through dawabit al-maslahah al-Buti will be studied the law of caesarean section by looking at how the restriction of maslahah contained in the caesarean section in the medical world through consideration of the positive effects and negative effects of caesarean section and the purpose of doing the cesarean section.Keywords: al-maslahah, cesarean section. Abstrak: Salah satu fenomena baru yang dipengaruhi oleh perkembangan zaman dan teknologi  yang sudah semakin maju adalah proses melahirkan dengan bedah Caesar. Bedah Caesar jelas memiliki efek positif (manfaat) dan efek negatif (mafsadat) apabila dikaji dari sudut pandang hukum Islam, terutama pandangan maslahatnya Ramadan al-Buti, yang mana beliau adalah salah satu sosok ulama yang peduli terhadap persoalan-persoalan baru dan yang memberi kriteria atau batasan terhadap sebuah kemaslahatan (dawabit}). Karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjawab permasalahan: Bagaimana bedah Caesar dalam Tinjauan Medis? dan Bagaimana analisis dawabit maslahah Muhamad Said Ramadan al-Buti terhadap penggunaan bedah Caesar dalam dunia Medis? Dalam penelitian ini penulis menggunakan penelitian kualitatif, penggunaan metode kualitatif ini bertujuan agar data yang diperoleh lebih lengkap, lebih mendalam dan kredibel. Temuan sementara dalam tinjauan medis Bedah caesar jelas memiliki efek positif dan efek negatif, demikian juga ibu melahirkan melakukan bedah caesar dengan berbagai motif dan tujuan, ada yang terpaksa, ada yang demi mempertahankan kecantikan tubuh dan ada juga yang demi membatasi keturunan. Melalui dawabit al-maslahah al-Buti akan dikaji hukum bedah caesar dengan melihat bagaimana pembatasan dari maslahah yang dikandung dalam bedah caesar dalam dunia medis melalui pertimbangan efek positif dan efek negatif dari bedah caesar serta tujuan dilakukanya bedah caesar itu sendiriKata kunci: al-Maslahah, Operasi Cesar.

Aims and Objectives: To evaluate wound healing and patient’s comfort after oral soft tissue surgical procedures performed by diode laser in comparison with diathermy. Methods: This study includes 20 patients requiring oral soft tissue surgical procedures are randomly categorized into group A and group B of 10 patients each. Group A patients will undergo diathermy and group B patients will undergo laser therapy. Clinical assessment and photographs of patients will be done preoperatively and postoperatively on 1st day, 3rd day, 7th day, 2nd    week and 4th week. Evaluation of postoperative bleeding, pain, infection and healing will be carried out. Results: At the end of the study the assessment of parameters such as bleeding, swelling, wound healing, presence of infection were approximately similar in both the treatment methods to be insignificant, 70% of the patients included in this study under the laser group were very satisfied with the procedure & the pain experience by the patients in the same group was comparatively less, when compared to the diathermy group. Conclusion: The observations suggest that both the treatment options were effective although laser proves better in terms of minimal bleeding, pain, reduced swelling, faster healing and patient’s comfort. Further research and a longer follow up period is desirable for a definitive conclusion.

The article presents data from a retrospective analysis of 8,706 childbirth histories of the Volgograd Clinical Perinatal Center No. 2 for 2018–2019 years. To analyze the frequency and indications for caesarean section, the 10-group classification by M. Robson was used. The results obtained allowed us to determine the groups with the highest frequency of cesarean section and outline ways to reduce the frequency of abdominal birth in these groups.

In the last few decades, the incidence of caesarean section is increasing in the world, especially in Indonesia. One of the way to treat tissue scar is through biologic and synthetic dressing where nowadays, amnion has been used as biologic dressing frequently. This study was conducted to determine the effect of the use of fresh amniotic membrane on wound incision Caesarean section compared with Caesarean section incision wound covered using regular gauze bandages and fixated with plaster in RS. Dr. Reksodiwiryo Padang. The design of this study is an experimen-tal study with Post test design with control group design. Sampling was done using a formula consecutive sampling two different test samples obtained an average of 72 people for each group. The analysis used include univariate and bivariate analyzes. The average wound healing time the difference was statistically significant (p value <0.05) in the treatment and control groups. There was highly significant difference in the proportion of local infection on day 3 between the treatment and control groups (p value <0.05). There were very significant differences in the proportion of local allergic reactions at day 3, and 5 between the treatment and control group (p <0.05). There are significant differences in terms of the cost of care per day between treatment and control groups (p <0.05). From this study, the average wound healing time has a very significant difference.Keywords: Fresh Amniotic Membrane, Wound Cesarean Section, Wound Healing

Background: Surveillance for surgical site infections (SSI) is recommended by the CDC. Currently, colon and abdominal hysterectomy SSI rates are publicly available and impact hospital reimbursement. However, the CDC NHSN allows surgical procedures to be abstracted based on International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) or current procedural terminology (CPT) codes. We assessed the impact of using ICD and/or CPT codes on the number of cases abstracted and SSI rates. Methods: We retrieved administrative codes (ICD and/or CPT) for procedures performed at the University of Iowa Hospitals & Clinics over 1 year: October 2018–September 2019. We included 10 procedure types: colon, hysterectomy, cesarean section, breast, cardiac, craniotomy, spinal fusion, laminectomy, hip prosthesis, and knee prosthesis surgeries. We then calculated the number of procedures that would be abstracted if we used different permutations in administration codes: (1) ICD codes only, (2) CPT codes only, (3) both ICD and CPT codes, and (4) at least 1 code from either ICD or CPT. We then calculated the impact on SSI rates based on any of the 4 coding permutations. Results: In total, 9,583 surgical procedures and 180 SSIs were detected during the study period using the fourth method (ICD or CPT codes). Denominators varied according to procedure type and coding method used. The number of procedures abstracted for breast surgery had a >10-fold difference if reported based on ICD only versus ICD or CPT codes (104 vs 1,109). Hip prosthesis had the lowest variation (638 vs 767). For SSI rates, cesarean section showed almost a 3-fold increment (2.6% when using ICD only to 7.32% with both ICD & CPT), whereas abdominal hysterectomy showed nearly a 2-fold increase (1.14% when using CPT only to 2.22% with both ICD & CPT codes). However, SSI rates remained fairly similar for craniotomy (0.14% absolute difference), hip prosthesis (0.24% absolute difference), and colon (0.09% absolute difference) despite differences in the number of abstracted procedures and coding methods. Conclusions: Denominators and SSI rates vary depending on the coding method used. Variations in the number of procedures abstracted and their subsequent impact on SSI rates were not predictable. Variations in coding methods used by hospitals could impact interhospital comparisons and benchmarking, potentially leading to disparities in public reporting and hospital penalties.Funding: NoneDisclosures: None

The number of clinical trials evaluating adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs), platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and biomaterials efficacy in regenerative plastic surgery has exponentially increased during the last ten years. AD-MSCs are easily accessible from various fat depots and show intrinsic plasticity in giving rise to cell types involved in wound healing and angiogenesis. AD-MSCs have been used in the treatment of soft tissue defects and chronic wounds, employed in conjunction with a fat grafting technique or with dermal substitute scaffolds and platelet-rich plasma. In this systematic review, an overview of the current knowledge on this topic has been provided, based on existing studies and the authors’ experience. A multistep search of the PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, PreMEDLINE, Ebase, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Clinicaltrials.gov, Scopus database, and Cochrane databases has been performed to identify papers on AD-MSCs, PRP, and biomaterials used in soft tissue defects and chronic wounds. Of the 2136 articles initially identified, 422 articles focusing on regenerative strategies in wound healing were selected and, consequently, only 278 articles apparently related to AD-MSC, PRP, and biomaterials were initially assessed for eligibility. Of these, 85 articles were excluded as pre-clinical, experimental, and in vitro studies. For the above-mentioned reasons, 193 articles were selected; of this amount, 121 letters, expert opinions, commentary, and editorials were removed. The remaining 72 articles, strictly regarding the use of AD-MSCs, PRP, and biomaterials in chronic skin wounds and soft tissue defects, were analyzed. The studies included had to match predetermined criteria according to the patients, intervention, comparator, outcomes, and study design (PICOS) approach. The information analyzed highlights the safety and efficacy of AD-MSCs, PRP, and biomaterials on soft tissue defects and chronic wounds, without major side effects.
