Filter by:The long saphenous vein is traditionally harvested for use as a conduit in coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. Currently, the long saphenous vein is not imaged prior to surgery. This study aims to evaluate preoperative ultrasound mapping of the long saphenous vein to to improve patient and clinical outcomes.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the impact of Customizable in the management of extensive closed surgical incisions for Subjects undergoing abdominal surgery for incisional hernia repair and/or functional panniculectomy as compared to SOC dressing, and to significantly reduce the SSC rate experienced by Subjects receiving Customizable vs. SOC surgical incision dressing.
This is a double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, controlled, multi-center study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RUT058-60 (Group A) as an intra-cavity lavage compared to sterile saline (Group B) in adult subjects undergoing abdominal surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Closed-Incision SNaP Device.
This is a study looking at patient's satisfaction with incision site and location after undergoing minimally invasive gynecologic surgery. (Laparoscopy) The study group will have the anticipated incision marked with a washable marker on their abdomen. The control group will have preoperative counselling as usual. After surgery, will assess patient's satisfaction with the incision scar.
Study objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate through clinical criteria the clinical efficacy and safety of BCT Silver Bandage role in obstetrical and gynecological wound healing is as effective and safe as Aquacel® Ag. Dressing. Study devices: - Study device: BCT Silver Bandage - Comparator device:"ConvaTec"Aquacel® Ag Hydrofiber Dressing Study design: - Randomized, Open-label, interventional, comparative, preventive study with Blinded evaluator. - All subjects must meet all the inclusion & exclusion criteria to enter this study in pre-operative phase. - Eligible subjects will be enrolled after a scheduled operative procedure. - There is SEVEN visits in this study (one screening eligibility phase up to 7 days before OP day, and four post-op treatment scheduled visits consisting on 1st , 3rd day, 5th day, 12th day and two follow up visit on the 28th and the 42nd post-operative day. - During each scheduled visit, each subject will have colored picture of his wound after dressing been removed, and on visit V6 for wound evaluation by blinded PI. Number of subjects: It is expected to recruit ≧150 eligible subjects. Study Duration: About eighteen month.
This study is being conducted to see how safe and effective the Prevena Incision Management System "Prevena" is when placed over a renal transplantation incision. Prevena provides negative pressure (suction) wound therapy. Prevena will be tested while applied during the time each subject is hospitalized and up to 5 days after the surgery. Prevena is a small portable negative pressure device which consists of a therapy unit that delivers negative pressure. It also includes a dressing system that is intended for use over closed incisions after surgery. The intent of this study is to evaluate Prevena versus the standard care that a doctor would use normally after a kidney transplant.
To evaluate the efficacy of honey as a post surgical exit site care process to promote healing and prevent infectious bacterial colonization of newly created exit sites. It has been shown in the medical literature that honey has properties that are conducive to healing and the prevention of infection. In one study it was demonstrated that in urethral injury in the rat treated with honey the injury healed with none of the usual formation of fibrous tissue seen in such healing processes, that there was no reduction in the luminal diameter usually seen, and that the cells lining the urethra were uncompromised in any way, i.e. totally normal and healthy. We feel that if an exit site can be healed quickly with good normal tissue being developed that the patient will have a much better chance to keep that exit healthy reducing time, cost, and disruption of lifestyle. Other positive aspects of honey are it has the low pH required for good healthy tissue healing, it works in the presence of wound fluids, and it has never been shown to produce a resistant bacterial strain.
