Clinical Trial Summary

A prospective randomized clinical trial will be performed. Patients will be randomized in 2 groups. The experimental group will undergo the combined application of intraperitoneal irrigation with clindamycin and gentamicin solution, fascial closure with Triclosan-impregnated sutures and application of mupirocin ointment over the skin staples, in addition to the standard care measures. The control group undergo only the standard care measures.

Incisional surgical-site infection will be investigated.


Clinical Trial Description

A prospective randomized clinical trial will be performed. Patients will be randomized in 2 groups. The experimental group will undergo the combined application of intraperitoneal irrigation with clindamycin (600mg) and gentamicin (240 mg) solution in 250 ml of normal saline, fascial closure with Triclosan-impregnated polyglactin suture and application of mupirocin ointment over the skin staples, in addition to the standard care measures. The control group undergo only the standard care measures, including decontamination of the skin during surgery with chlorhexidine alcohol solution, administration of systemic antibiotic prophylaxis and application of thermal blanket to avoid hypothermia. In the control group, the fascial closure will be performed with a polyglactin suture (without Triclosan impregnation).

Incisional surgical-site infection will be investigated. ;
