ABSTRACT:
In performing cesarean section (c/section) surgery, and other surgery, a scalpel blade is used having a blunt and rounded edge to divide or separate tissue. In a cesarean section a scalpel with a sharp edge is first used to begin the uterine incision. A scalpel blade with a blunt and rounded edge is then used to continue the incision through the uterine wall to the amniotic cavity. The blunt edge scalpel blade reduces the possibility of lacerating the baby during delivery.
