ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking to find out if it's possible to predict the presence of abdominal adhesions in women who are having a repeat cesarean section, also known as a C-section. Abdominal adhesions are bands of scar tissue that can form after surgery and may lead to complications during future surgeries. The researchers want to use different factors to help identify which women might have these adhesions before their surgery.

To participate in this trial, women need to be between 18 and 35 years old, must have had at least one previous C-section, and be at least 36 weeks pregnant. The study is currently not recruiting participants yet, so it's not open for enrollment at this time. If eligible, participants will be involved in assessments that help the doctors learn more about the condition and improve care for future patients. It's important to note that women who are having their first baby, those who are less than 36 weeks pregnant, or those who have had infections after a previous C-section would not be eligible for this study.
