A Prospective Randomized Control Study Of Comparison between Continuous Versus Interrupted X-Suture for Midline Laparotomy Wound Closure

Abstract

Background: The choice of surgical incision to open the abdominal cavity can be based on patient, surgeon, or health care system criteria. Methods: A prospective randomised study was designed wherein a total of 119 patients undergoing midline laparotomy at one of the surgical units at S.P. Medical College & Hospital, Bikaner were recruited randomly after taking written informed consent. In the study group of 59 cases, sheath closure was done by using interrupted X suture and the same was compared with control group (n = 60) in which sheath closure was done by continuous suture technique. Result: In our study showed that the 41.66% dirty wound was found in interrupted X-suture group as compared to continuous suture group. Because interrupted suture use more in dirty wound during patients selection. Conclusion: In our study conclude that the dirty wound was more in interrupted X-suture group as compared to continuous suture group.
