The effectiveness of intrauterine irrigation with an antibiotic solution of cefamandole nafate in reducing the incidence of endometritis after cesarean section was studied in a prospective, double-blind fashion. Ninety patients who underwent cesarean section at Tripler Army Medical Center were divided into three equal groups. Each group received one of the following treatments at the time of operation: (1) intrauterine irrigation with the antibiotic solution, (2) irrigation with normal saline solution, or (3) no irrigation. The resulting incidences of endometritis were 0%, 26.7%, and 23.3%, respectively. Intrauterine irrigation with cefamandole nafate solution at the time of cesarean section significantly reduced the incidence of endometritis.
