NCT ID NCT07645547
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a special vacuum dressing (ciNPWT) placed over the surgical incision to prevent wound infections and healing problems in women at high risk after gynecologic cancer surgery. Thirty participants will receive either the device or standard dressing after planned abdominal surgery. Researchers will check how practical the device is and compare complication rates at 30 days.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a simple way to reduce wound complications after gynecologic cancer surgery, improving recovery.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small, early feasibility study with only 30 patients. It is not randomized and may not prove the device works better than standard care.
