This study evaluates the effects of dressing timing after abdominal hysterectomy on wound healing and infection risk. It highlights the potential for early dressing removal to accelerate healing and underscores the need for clear guidelines in wound care that align with the ERAS(Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) protocol. Using a prospective, randomized, double-blind design, this research was carried out at Başakşehir Çam and Sakura City Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey. The objective was to investigate the impact of early dressing removal on wound healing and infection rates after elective abdominal hysterectomy. Demographic parameters such as age, height, weight, and body mass index (BMI) were found to have no significant impact on wound healing. Patients whose dressings were removed early had shorter hospital stays. No significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of wound complications and hospital readmission rates. Early dressing removal after abdominal hysterectomy was observed to positively affect wound healing and facilitate earlier hospital discharge. However, no significant differences were found in hospital readmission rates between the two groups. These findings suggest that the dressing timing can be more flexible within the ERAS protocol and does not have a decisive impact on postoperative complications.
