Surgical Site Infection Clinical Trial
Official title:
Standard Wound Dressing Versus Prophylactic Negative-pressure Wound Therapy After Emergency Laparotomy: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Post-operative wound complications in abdominal surgery have a major impact on patient outcomes and the real impact of Closed incision negative pressure therapy (CINVt) is not clear in the literature moreover concerning its potential economic benefits The hypothesis of this study is that CINPt has the potential to reduce Surgical Site Infections. Secondly the investigators aim to study the economic impact of CINPt used after abdominal emergency laparotomies.
Emergency laparotomies lead to increased morbidity and mortality rates. In this scenario the most frequent wound occurrences are represented by wound infections, skin dehiscence or parietal hernias. Despite standard surgical aseptically technique and perioperative prevention management of infections (e.g. antibiotics), wound complications after emergency laparotomies are still an important unmet challenge. Moreover, all these complications increase the cost of care requiring new managements. CINPt has been longly used to favour the successful healing of a plethora of open wounds. In particular CINPt is based on the application of local negative pressure to the wound surface. In case of open abdomens, the procedure is performed by applying a sterile abdominal dressing, which consists of a fenestrated soft plastic non-adherent layer with enclosed central foam, which is placed on the surface of the viscera. Then, two layers of porous sponge dressings are applied over the plastic layer. Finally, a transparent adhesive is placed over the foam and the wound to seal the abdominal cavity. The entire system is then connected, by suction tubes, to a device which ubiquitously applies negative pressure (cyclically or continuously) on the surface. The fluid from the wound is collected into a container. The benefits of negative pressure wound therapy have been reported to include removal of infectious material, reduction in oedema and improved perfusion to tissue. Since few years, a new negative pressure wound therapy has been created for closed wounds to reduce time of healing and avoid wound complications. ;
