Trial summary

This study investigates the effect of materials used in subcuticular suture on patients' outcomes after surgery. The prevention of surgical site wound infection is important to decrease the length of hospital stay and the post-operative risk of incisional hernia, especially in patients undergoing open hepatectomy… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of Materials for Subcuticular Suture (Quill® vs. Monocryl®) on Complications After Liver Resection

This study investigates the effect of materials used in subcuticular suture on patients' outcomes after surgery. The prevention of surgical site wound infection is important to decrease the length of hospital stay and the post-operative risk of incisional hernia, especially in patients undergoing open hepatectomy (surgical removal of the liver). The purpose of this study is to compare the impact of the use of Quill versus Monocryl for subcuticular suture on patients' outcomes after surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Liver and Intrahepatic Bile Duct Neoplasm, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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 2023. 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 United States. 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?

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of complications after liver resection (time frame: 1 year). 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 2023.
