Vacuum Sealing Drainage (VSD) in Promoting Wound Healing and Reducing Complications in Post-Infected Obstetric and Gynecological Surgical Sites
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Conventional Wound Care Group: o Wounds will be managed with daily or twice-daily dressing changes using saline-moistened gauze, antiseptic solutions, and sterile dry dressings, as per standard hospital protocols for infected wounds
Vacuum Sealing Drainage (VSD) Group: After initial debridement, a VSD system will be applied to the wound bed. The wound will be sealed with an adhesive drape, and connected to a negative pressure unit.
Study summary
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of VSD in promoting wound healing and reducing complications, such as re-infection, prolonged hospitalization, and need for further surgical interventions, in obstetric and gynecological patients who have developed surgical site infections following their primary procedures. The investigators hypothesize that VSD will lead to faster wound healing, fewer complications, and improved patient outcomes compared to conventional wound care in this specific patient population.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Time to complete wound healing — weekly follow up for one month after procedure
Defined as complete epithelialization of the wound, measured in days
