简要总结
This study involves surveying two matched groups of patients that underwent dermatologic surgery at our department. One group had a documented surgical site infection and the other didn't. All patients will be asked to complete a questionnaire in which they assess the physical appearance of their scars and its psychosocial impact. Results will be compared between the groups.
详细描述
65 patients with a documented surgical site infection will be compared to 65 patients with normal wound healing in terms of patient reported outcome regarding scar physical appearance and psychosocial impact using SCAR-Q questionnaire.

主要结局
Comparing mean values of SCAR-Q scores in both groups
时间窗: 3 months
Scar-Q (http://qportfolio.org/scar-q/) is a patient reported outcome instrument in which scars will be assessed in terms of scar appearance and psychosocial impact. Scores will range from 0 (worst) to 100 (best). Scores will be compared between the two groups using either parametric or non-parametric tests depending on the distribution of the results.
