Abdomen Closure Using Triclosan Coated Absorbable Suture vs Uncoated Sutures of the Same Base Material

University of Pecs·interventional·Posted Jun 15, 2012·Updated Jun 15, 2012

In Brief

A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating abdominal wall closure and surgical site infection for Infection. Completed, enrolled 1 participant across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

After open colorectal surgery the surgical site infection (SSI) is very high among abdominal surgeries. The goal of the investigators randomized, prospective, multicentric, internet-based study is to compare rate of SSI after surgery of colon and rectum by using triclosan-coated suture for abdominal wall closure. 180-180 cases in seven centres are involved in this study. Two arms are separated by computer randomization at abdominal wall closure: application of triclosan-coated and non-coated PDS suture (PDS versus PDS-Plus). Triclosan is an antiseptic material which the investigators hope will provide better local infection control at the site with reducing the risk of bacterial colonisation.
