NCT ID NCT07601919
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 184 adults who had emergency belly surgery to see if the way doctors stitch the wound back up affects healing. They compared two methods: interrupted sutures (each stitch tied separately) and continuous sutures (one long stitch). The goal was to see which method leads to fewer wound openings or infections within 10 days after surgery.
