Wound Closure Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Comparative Study of Incision Closure Methods for Total Knee Arthroplasty
The aim of the study is to compare incision closure techniques for total knee replacement
using a combination of state-of-the-art sutures with tissue adhesives or staples in an
effort to identify the best approach with respect to time efficiency, cost, durability,
dehiscence, microbial resistance and cosmesis.
The hypothesis is that the combined suture/adhesive approach (sutures for capsule and
subcutaneous layers, and tissue adhesive for the final cutaneous layer) or suture/staple
approach will be significantly faster and of comparable durability as the conventional
exclusive suture approach (sutures used for the capsule, subcutaneous, and cutaneous
layers). This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, single site, unblinded (open label)
study.
