Backround: We aimed to investigate the
association of platelet count (PLT) and MPV/PLT ratio with the
development of
surgical site infections (SSI) in patients who have undergone elective
cesarean section (CS).

Materials and Methods: We retrospectively evaluated patients who underwent elective cesarean section and 44 patients (mean age 28.7±7.3 years) who encountered surgical site infection (infection group) and 42 patients (mean age 27.8±6.1 years) without surgical site infection after cesarean section (normal group) were enrolled in the study.

Results: Platelet count (291.7±46.8 10³/µL vs. 235.4 ± 64.7 10³/µL; p< 0.001) was decreased and MPV/PLT ratio (0.035±0.006 vs 0.047±0.02.; p= 0.01) was statistically increased in infection group

Conclusions: Patients undergoing elective cesarean section and experiencing surgical site infections have higher MPV/PLT ratio than patients without SSI. These measurements may provide clues for the development of SSI and allow clinicians to recognize and monitor patients under substantial risk for development of SSI and offers an opportunity to evolve systematic approaches to eliminate or reduce risk factors.
