简要总结
The objective of the study is reduction of the incidence of the most frequent complication of abdominal surgery, incisional hernia. In this multi center double-blinded prospective randomized controlled trial, in which a new suture technique using small bites is compared with the traditionally applied large bites (mass closure) technique for midline incisions.

研究组 & 干预措施
Large tissue bites
As control the conventional large bites technique (mass closure) will be applied in with bites widths of 1 cm and inter-suture spacing of 1 cm with the use of PDS plus ll 1-0 double loop suture material with a 48 mm needle.
干预措施: Closure of the abdominal wall after midline incisions (Procedure)
small tissue bites
In the other group of 288 patients the small bites technique will be applied with bite widths of 0,5 cm and inter suture spacing of 0,5 cm with the use of PDS plus ll 2-0 single suture material with a 31 mm needle placed in the linea alba. In the small bites technique, twice as many stitches will be placed per sutured cm, with a smaller needle and thinner suture material.
干预措施: Closure of the abdominal wall after midline incisions (Procedure)
结局指标
