Stitch showdown: which surgical thread heals best?
NCT ID NCT07451990
Summary
This study compared two common types of surgical stitches used to close the abdominal wall after planned belly surgery. Researchers wanted to see if one type (Prolene, which stays in) or the other (Vicryl, which dissolves) led to fewer wound problems like infections or the wound splitting open. They followed 152 adult patients for 30 days after their surgery to track their healing.
