Split Scar Study to Assess Cosmetic Outcome From Differing Suture Spacing — SFD  

Surgery Clinical Trial

Official title:
Split Scar Study to Assess Cosmetic Outcome From Differing Suture Spacing

Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators wish to determine how suture spacing (5 mm vs. 10 mm) affects cosmetic outcome and development of "train tracking" in wounds. Linear wounds with sutures spaced closer together may not be as cosmetically appealing when compared to those that have larger spacing between sutures. Suturing closer together constricts blood flow and increases tension that ultimately results in more tissue necrosis and a less appealing outcome. The investigators also aim to conclude if 5 mm or 10 mm suture spacing results in less complications.
