About this study

At present, open-type abdominal surgery is routine access into the abdomen. Median incision is the common choice with open-type abdominal surgery. Layered abdomen-closing is often used at the end-time of the surgery. There are some common postoperative complications, such as incision pain, surgical site infection, surgical incision dehiscence and incisional hernia. The key to reduce the incidence of postoperative complications depends on safe and reliable technology of abdomen-closing.

It's usually difficult to close the abdomen after the incisional hernia surgery, and the recurrence of incisional hernia is high. But the recurrence fell off observably when component separation technology was applied to abdomen-closing of incisional hernia.

Based on this, we hypothesis that modified-CST applied to abdomen-closing in routine abdominal surgery may improve the quality of wound-healing.

In this prospective single-blind randomized controlled trial, traditional abdomen-closing technology and modified-CST will be used to gastric cancer surgery, and the quality of wound-healing will be evaluated to confirm which kind of abdomen-closing technology better.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing modified component separation technique in people with Fascial Closure, run by Xijing Hospital of Digestive Diseases at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Xiaonan Liu, Ph.D (86-029-84771533, liuxnxjh@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Class A healing rate of the surgical incision (time frame: 1 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Apr 2017.
