Summary
This study tested whether a special wound vacuum (negative pressure therapy) works better than standard stitches to prevent surgical site infections in 50 patients who had emergency abdominal surgery for peritonitis. The goal was to see which method leads to faster, more reliable wound healing without infection. Results will help doctors choose the best closure technique for these high-risk surgeries.
