Clinical Trial Summary

Comparison of wound complication and scar formation in patient undergone bilateral total knee replacement comparison between polypropylene and polyglactin 910 suture. patient randomised according to SNOS protocol into group A and B for their right and left knee closure with each suture. patient followed on 3rd, 7th, 15th and 30th post operative day for wound healing, wound dehiscence and scar formation.


Description:

All patients aged 50-80 years, belonging to either sex, diagnosed with end-stage osteoarthritis or post-traumatic arthritis, and scheduled for bilateral primary total knee arthroplasty at the Department of Orthopedics, Indus Hospital and Health Network, Karachi were enrolled in the study. Exclusion criteria included patients having existing skin, neuromuscular, or connective tissue disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, immunosuppression, morbid obesity, and pregnancy. All patients provided voluntary informed written consent before enrolment in the study. In all patients undergoing primary TKA, one knee was closed using polypropylene, whereas the other was closed with Polyglactin 910 sutures. All surgeries were performed by the same surgical team using a standard medial parapatellar approach. The number of sutures and wound closure techniques were standardized across both groups.
