Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Chlorhexidine gluconate IP equivalent to 0.5% w/v of chlorhexidine gluconate and Isopropyl Alcohol 70% v/v purified water IP q.s.  Skin preparation will be done by centrifugal scrubbing motion for 30 sec if incision site is dry and 2 min if incision site is moist starting from the area of the intended incision extending upward towards the sub-costal margin to the mid-axillary line and down to the middle of the thigh.The area will be then allowed to dry for 3 minutes.  
Comparator Agent  Povidone iodine 10% w/v  The povidone iodine application will be 2 step scrub followed by painting and then left to dry for 3 minutes before draping the area and commencing the surgery.

Brief Summary  

This study is a randomized, double blind, parallel group, active controlled trial comparing the efficacy of chlorhexidine gluconate and povidone iodine as skin antiseptic for prevention of surgical site infection in women undergoing emergency caesarean delivery expecting chlorhexidine–gluconate to be superior to povidine iodine in having less incidence of SSI. The primary outcome measures will be the incidence of Surgical Site Infection. The secondary outcome measures will be the duration of hospital stay, requirement for re-suturing, re-admission resulting from infection, pyrexia.
