Filter by:To compare skin closure via subcuticular suture versus tissue adhesive (Dermabond) in urogynecological robotic surgeries. The primary outcome is incision cosmesis at the 12 week follow up visit. Secondary outcome is the operative time between the two methods of closure.
This will be an open label pilot randomized controlled clinical trial. Women undergoing cesarean delivery will be randomized to have standard wound dressing care or chlorohexidine gluconate (CHG) impregnated wound dressing (ReliaTect™ Post-Op Dressing).
This study will evaluate the use of free autologous dermal fat grafting (also called free dermal fat autografting) to treat complex craniofacial wounds that have failed standard treatment and to understand how well these grafts work to repair wounds long term. Patients who have undergone free autologous dermal fat grafting to treat complex craniofacial wounds 2-30 years ago will have photographs and small biopsies taken of the area that was grafted.
This study will evaluate the use of free autologous dermal fat grafting (also called free dermal fat autografting) to treat complex craniofacial wounds that have failed standard treatment and to understand how well these grafts work to repair wounds long term. Patients who have undergone free autologous dermal fat grafting to treat complex craniofacial wounds less than 1 week ago will have photographs and small biopsies taken of the area that was grafted. Patients will be followed for 2 years to monitor the area that was grafted.
The purpose of this research study is to determine if closing a surgical wound differently is better than the procedure that is currently used. The wound will be closed with what is considered "tertiary intent." This means, rather than leaving the wound open, the wound will be partially closed after surgery, and then completely closed 4-7 days after surgery. The investigators also want to see how this new wound closure process affects your quality of life.
This is a research study to find out whether wound closure (the process of closing the surgical wound after the procedure is complete) with Dermabond PRINEO Skin Closure System (PRINEO) will be faster and improve wound healing compared to standard closing methods after total shoulder replacement. The PRINEO system involves using running stitches to close the wound, and then taping over the sutures with a sticky film that holds the wound closed.
ROSSINI 2 is a phase III, multi-arm, multi-stage (MAMS) pragmatic, blinded (patient and outcome assessor), multicentre, randomised controlled trial (RCT) with an internal pilot, to evaluate the use of several in-theatre interventions, used alone or in combination, to reduce SSI rates in patients undergoing surgery.
A better suture technology will reduce postoperative incision complications. This study is designed to compare mass continous suture with PDS and interrupted suture with thread on major abdominal incision.
Wound healing after surgery is a complex procedure. Liquefaction of the fat and necrosis of inactivated tissue, as well as blood clots are always accumulated mostly within 24 hours after surgery. As such, early debridement within 24 hours after surgery might improve the healing of the wounds. This study is designed to compare the impact of early debridement of the wound versus regular dressing (24 hours later) on the wound healing. 100 patients will be included in this study, and divided into 2 groups randomly. Then, the healing of the wound, stitch removal time, incidence of incision complications will be compared between the two groups.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two types of absorbable surgical sutures -- STRATAFIX Spiral PDS Knotless Plus Tissue Control Device and STRATAFIX Spiral MONOCRYL Plus Knotless Tissue Control Device (hereinafter referred to as Spiral PDS Plus and Spiral MONOCRYL Plus) used in thyroid surgery to suture surgical incision.
