Official title
Assessment of Wound Closure Techniques in Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty Using SPY Intra-operative Angiography
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study will assess which of the three most common methods of wound closure in primary total knee arthroplasty (staples, interrupted vertical mattress, or running subcuticular suture) provide the best wound vascular perfusion. This can be achieve by using SPY intra-operative vascular angiography, which is commonly used in clinical practice to assess perfusion of wound closure at the clinic. By understanding the differences in perfusion afforded by different closure techniques, surgeons will then be able to select the technique that optimizes this parameter so as to avoid complications such as tissue necrosis, wound dehiscence, or infection.
