The purpose of the study is whether the Pfannenstiel skin incision can be adjusted according to the occipitofrontal diameter (OFD) of the fetal head.
Several methods for closure of trocar wounds are known in laparoscopic surgery including mostly transcutaneous or subcuticular suture or adhesive paper tape. Studies comparing laparoscopic incision closure in bariatric population are limited .This is a prospective study that will be conducted in a single tertiary medical center. s obese population comprise most of our surgical candidates, and due to the aforementioned, the aim of our study is to compare the outcomes of both techniques in obese women.
A pilot, prospective, single-center study for the investigation of the use of Prevena Vacuum-Assisted Closure devices in patients undergoing spine surgery.
Cesarean section is surging worldwide. For an extended period of surgical practice, the scalpel has been well-known as a gold-standard tool for making surgical incisions. The diathermy, electrocautery, is a substitute.
This study is trying to find out if there is one method of surgical incision closure is better than another. The three different wound closure methods in this study are currently used in standard of care. The three methods being compared are standard stitches and the wound closure devices, Clozex, and Zipline. All of these methods are approved by the FDA.
The ASOLO-SCI investigation is a Post Market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) study to investigate the safety and performance of the Avance® Solo NPWT System in treating low to moderate exuding surgically closed incisions for up to 14 days when used in accordance with the Instructions for Use (IfU).
In the attempt to gain quick and complete access to the abdominal regions with the least damage to the nerves and the vascular structures, surgeons use the median laparotomy more frequently. However, postoperative complications such as incisional hernia continue to be the known leading complications after median laparotomy. The reported cases to range from 2 to 20%. Higher cases have also been reported with up to 35% in the absence and aortic patients. Recent statistics have showed that small tissue bites prevent incisional hernia can occur in the aponeurosis. This technique is more effective than the commonly used process, which involves large edges of mass closure. In this study investigators aim to compare small bites sutures in closure of laparotomy incision and standardized large bites sutures, and its affect in reducing the incidence of incisional hernia postoperative along with the surgical site infection. the investigators hypothesize that the small bites technique will result in a significant reduction of the incidence of incisional hernia and optimize the surgical site infection in major surgeries which may lead to a reduced morbidity and a better quality of life for patients and a significant reduction of costs.
The overarching goal of this research is to assess whether the post-operative use of closed-incision Negative Pressure Therapy (ciNPT) accelerates healing of surgical wounds, improves surgical outcomes, and reduces the rate of local complications in high-risk, obese, post-bariatric patients undergoing abdominal body-contouring procedures (abdominal panniculectomy or "abdominoplasty") compared to standard wound care. The investigators postulate that ciNPT can cost-effectively improve outcomes and standard of post-surgical care in this specific category of patients. This hypothesis will be tested through a prospective, interventional, case-control, randomized clinical trial.
