A study reports that 10 patients had

A study reports that 10 patients had emergency c-sections and 7 women developed wound infections (70% risk of infection), whereas 10 women had planned c-sections and 2 developed wound infections (20% risk of infection). The Risk Ratio is 70/20 = 3.5. This would be interpreted as women who underwent emergency C-section had 3.5 times the risk of wound infection compared to women who had planned c-sections. The higher the risk ratio, the higher the risk for the disease or complication. Let’s say the results were not statistically significant (e.g., p > 0.05). Although the results were not statistically significant, are the results clinically important? No, if results aren’t statistically significant, they shouldn’t be used to inform a clinical practice. Yes, this risk ratio is high and infection is a serious complication. Practitioners should take these results into consideration.
