Surgical stitch timing tested: does waiting reduce infections?

NCT ID NCT07142395

Summary

This study compared two methods for closing surgical wounds after emergency abdominal operations. Researchers wanted to know if closing the skin immediately after surgery or waiting 3-5 days leads to fewer wound infections and better recovery. They followed 82 adult patients for four weeks to track infections, wound healing, and hospital stay length.
