Effectiveness of antimicrobial prophylaxis at 30 versus 60 min before cesarean delivery.

This study aimed to examine the effect of antibiotic prophylaxis (AP) given within 30 compared to 30-60 min before skin incision on the incidence of infectious morbidity after cesarean delivery (CD). A retrospective cohort study was conducted at a single institution on data between 2014 and 2018. Women who delivered by CD were divided into two groups according to AP timing before skin incision: group 1 within 30 min, and group 2 from 30 to 60 min.
