“…Tissue biopsy is the gold standard for microbiological analysis of wounds, however it is invasive and can potentially disrupt wound healing [8,33]. However, in perineal wound infection following childbirth, although there is no established reference standard, it is recommended that wound swabs are taken for culture and sensitivity [37]. Tissue biopsy is not the standard practice for the assessment of perineal wound infection so was not performed in this study.…”

The number of caesarean deliveries in Bangladesh, like other developed countries in the world, has increased at an alarming rate. Contrary to conventional deliveries, C-section births are more dangerous and difficult, albeit they are occasionally unavoidable. This paper aimed at exploring the health risks and complexities of caesarean mothers and babies in Bangladesh. Researchers organized a field study in Sylhet district, the northeastern part of Bangladesh, and interviewed in persons with 45 participants including doctors from two medical college hospitals and mothers who underwent caesarean sections applying purposive sampling technique. Researchers used thematic analysis method for analyzing primary data. Researchers applied two cycle coding (open coding and selective coding) to formulate the large themes. Research findings reveal that most of the mother participants got caesarean delivery only for avoiding pain without having any pregnancy complexities. This unplanned decisions regarding the birth style lead to serious concerns on the health systems of mother and babies including bleeding, over pain, increased infections, injury to the organs, problems in the future pregnancy, premature birth, asthma, diabetes-1 and other physical and psychological problems. Besides, these risks tend to be higher in Bangladesh due to lack of expertise doctors, technology, infrastructure, awareness and weak management systems. Hopefully, this study findings would be a guideline for the future researchers, policy makers, practitioners, and relevant communities to avoid unplanned Caesars and minimize the health risks of caesarean mothers and babies. Key words: Caesarean, risks, complexities, mother, babies, and Bangladesh

“…This biopolymer-based tampon proved to be better than many commercial ones. The high absorption rate and the antimicrobial properties of chitosan make it highly suitable and beneficial for pregnant women [ 157 ]. As natural polymers, chitosan’s ability to cross-link with cellulose fibers in regular biodegradable textile sheets allows the fabrication of smart wound dressings highly suitable for adsorption, preventing microbial growth, and accelerate wound healing.…”

“…Natural delivery has also been associated with vaginal trauma caused by vaginal surgery, leading to serious wound infection [156]. Various cellulose and chitosan-based biocomposites have been developed and characterized to explore their potential use in obstetric and gynecological tampons [157]. Viscose fibers have been coated by chitosan as an antibacterial agent to develop gynecological tampons, which dissolve in acetic or lactic acids to inhibit microbial growth and adjust its pH [158].…”

Biopolymers have gained tremendous attention in many daily life applications, including medical applications, in the past few years. Obstetrics and gynecology are two fields dealing with sensitive parts of the woman’s body and her newborn baby, which are normally associated with many issues such as toxicity, infections, and even gene alterations. Medical professions that use screening, examination, pre, and post-operation materials should benefit from a better understanding of each type of material’s characteristics, health, and even environmental effects. The underlying principles of biopolymer-based materials for different obstetric and gynecologic applications may discover various advantages and benefits of using such materials. This review presents the health impact of conventional polymer-based materials on pregnant women’s health and highlights the potential use of biopolymers as a safer option. The recent works on utilizing different biopolymer-based materials in obstetric and gynecologic are presented in this review, which includes suture materials in obstetric and gynecologic surgeries, cosmetic and personal care products, vaginal health, and drug delivery; as well as a wound dressing and healing materials. This review highlights the main issues and challenges of biopolymers in obstetric and gynecologic applications.
