About this study

Official title: Mass Continuous Suture With PDS Versus Interrupted Suture With Thread on Major Abdominal Incision: A Randomized Controlled Trial

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.

Read the detailed description

A better suture technology will reduce postoperative incision complications. The previous retrospective cohort study from the investigator has demonstrated that continuous mass suture with PDS led to shorter incision closure time, early wound healing and comparable incisional complications versus interrupted thread suture. As such, the current RCT study will include 100 subjects with major abdominal incision. They will be divided into two groups randomly: Mass suture gorup, mass continuous suture with PDS, Control group, interrupted suture with thread. The wound healing time, stitches removal time and incidence of incision complications will be compared between the two groups.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Mass continous suture with PDSProcedure or surgery

    The surgical incision will be treated by mass continous suture with PDS.

  • Interrupted suture with threadProcedure or surgery

    The surgical incision will be treated by interrupted suture with thread.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. healing time, d (day)

    Time duration between the date of surgery to the date of stitches off

    Measured: Up to 1 month after surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. incidence of incision complications

    The incision complications include infection, dehiscence, fat liquefaction, and so on.

    Measured: Up to 1 month after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mass continous suture with PDS and Interrupted suture with thread in people with Surgical Wound and Suture, Complication, run by First Affiliated Hospital Xi'an Jiaotong University 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 3 inclusion and 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 May 2021. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

healing time, d (day) (time frame: Up to 1 month after surgery). 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 19 May 2021.
