Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Response - NO
Brief Summary   Background: Caesarean section (CS) is the most common procedure globally with 32.1% of all deliveries. CS can be associated with Surgical Site Infections (SSIs) which can be reduced or prevented by applying proper techniques and thus, reduce the health care burden and also economic burden on the society. Hence, this study will be conducted to study the effect of surgical bundle with preoperative skin preparation and vaginal cleaning versus surgical bundle without preoperative skin preparation and vaginal cleaning on the prevention of surgical site infections in women undergoing caesarean section.
Methodology: A total of 170 women undergoing CS will be randomized into two groups following computer-generated randomization. Group A (Experimental Group) will include caesarean section with surgical bundle with preoperative skin preparation and vaginal cleaning and Group B (Control Group) will include caesarean section with surgical bundle without preoperative skin preparation and vaginal cleaning. The data will be collected following the suture site examination on day 2, day 4, and day 9.
Result: The data will be collected and will undergo statistical analysis with descriptive and inferential statistics. p-value < 0.05 will be considered statistically significant.
Conclusion: The study will conclude the effect of the surgical bundle with preoperative skin preparation and vaginal cleaning in comparison with the surgical bundle without preoperative skin preparation and vaginal cleaning on the prevention of SSIs in women undergoing CS with statistical and clinical implications and differences.
