Record History

  1. Study First Submitted
The goal of this trial is to compare the effectiveness of small bite versus large bite abdominal incision closure in emergency settings. It will also evaluate the safety and outcomes of each technique. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does small bite closure reduce the incidence of superficial surgical site infections (SSI), wound dehiscence, and incisional hernia compared to large bite closure? What are the associated complications of each closure technique? Participants will: Undergo either a small bite or large bite abdominal incision closure during emergency laparotomy Visit the clinic for follow-up assessments at 7 days, 15 days, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months post-operatively Have their wound healing and complications documented and analyzed during respective visits.
