The wound of cesarean section involves multiple layers of tissue and often cause significant postoperative pain. The epidermal wound typically heals within 1 to 2 weeks after surgery. In current clinical practice, advanced wound dressings are commonly used for postoperative wound care. The theory of moist wound healing was first proposed by Winter in 1962, advocating that maintaining a moist environment around the wound can accelerate the healing process. HERADERM Hydrogel Wound Dressing (Sterile) was approved by the Taiwan FDA in 1999. Although HERADERM Hydrogel Wound Dressing (Sterile) are frequently used clinically for post-cesarean section wound care, there have been no comprehensive reports evaluating the effectiveness and clinical application of the dressings to date. The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness and feasibility of HERADERM Hydrogel Wound Dressing on caesarean section surgical site and to provide user experience and clinical data for reference by patients and clinical personnel.
