In Brief
An observational study evaluating Barbed for Incisional Hernia of Midline of Abdomen. Completed, enrolled 128 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Urgency surgeries are often performed in a stressful setting with critical patient involved. In this context, laparotomy closure can sometimes be the most neglected part of the procedure. Barbed sutures, frequently used in laparoscopic procedures, have proven to be effective in maintaining traction. The aim of this study is to describe the incisional hernia rate after emergency midline laparotomy, according to the suture utilized, evaluated at one month and one year postoperative.
